My 03 200 is a DE and has a bigger tank. I'm not sure if it's part of the DE package but it looks factory. All I know is that when it is low on gas I'm out of gas.

I can get between 35-45 miles, but it depends on how hard I twist the right wrist. I am also on a stock tank. I've pushed 50 mile on an enduro, but had to switch to reserve.....once and only once!

By the way...you bike looks very clean!

after changing carb and jetting mine, i am getting 2.5 hours on a stock tank at race pace. i dunno how many miles that is - maybe 40-50? i could probably stretch to almost 60 if not wacking the throttle all the time...

Default Tank

If he doesnt want tank I could sure use it on my 300 !
I have an oversized tank on my 06 but it does not fit my 01 because of the suspension difference.I tried to make do by just swapping but itll end up ruining my other tank.the 06 is out of commision so itd be nice to have the extra range on old faithful

yes i am Interested in the tank , give me a little time though to many toys 2 little cash. Unless you know anybody interested in an 05 YZ250F with an Athena kit $2200. Back on point, I really like the power, you can lug it under the pipe and still have fun and when its time to move feather the clutch and GOODBYE!! Yes It Hauls a@#.
