Larger Tank for Baja X250? Thoughts?

KirkN · 12-20-2014, 08:32 PM

So, my Baja Motorsports X250 dirt bike has a 0.8 gallon plastic tank, and I'm looking for a bit more capacity.

Thoughts or suggestions or experiences?

The frame is a perimeter style, and the plastic tank mostly sits on top, but has a bit of a 'blister' that sticks down between the two rails, above the valve cover.

I've already abandoned the stock faux radiator shrouds, so I'm not too worried about having to make THEM fit back. Fitting the seat might be a different story, though.

Thoughts?

Thanks,

Kirk

The frame looks similar to a honda CRF.

Take a look at this. http://www.ebay.com/itm/06-HONDA-CRF...8c42a1&vxp=mtr

It would sure be nice if that Honda tank would fit. I remember that was the major complaint back when that bike came out. Several people chose the Hummer dirt bike instead, based on tank volume alone. Too bad, because the Baja X250 / Gio 250 was a far superior bike.
