    Here you go Bruce:

    Caps for $7. Petcock adapters for $5.

    They're good tanks. I've got one on my 200X and like it a lot.

    stickers bubble up on plastic tanks, and probably the worst thing about them is that the white ones turn an ugly yellow color after a while.

    Yep, all plastic tanks leak fuel vapours through their walls. This means any graphics or paint will eventually fall off so your options for anything other than a plain tank are virtually nil.

    It's all personal preference though. I prefer plastic on dirt toys over steel so it was a no-brainer for me.

    You need to consider the above though for cosmetic choices down the road.

    Well.... Thanks for the info on the clarke website!!!!

    If you put a printed leather tank cover OVER the plastic tank it should look real sharp! Yes... mike from LI I'm going to get things finallized with CEET here in the next 2 weeks while I have time before the school year starts.... that goes out to Todd and Dirtface too! Should have your tank covers FINALLY....in the next month or 2
