I think that is an older Clarke for 2000-06.

there is an UK company selling it with a fit kit for the 2007-11

This is what I got from Ben
"I talked with Clarke and they are going to make one for the 2012-13 models since they are not close enough to fit." Referring to the older Clarke tank. Then he sent me this "They are just waiting for a bike to get working."

So looks like we will have a bigger tank.

I happened to have some small Wolfman saddle bags and a bought two of these MSR Dromedary bags http://www.rei.com/product/849790/ms...a-001b2166becc Oh and I know about REI, I bought the first one from Amazon actually as its cheaper, but I had to spend my $5 REI divined check and 20% off so I went and got the second bag. Obviously I don't shop there much anyways...but they do have some stuff...shame on company anti OHV policy at the corporate level....store employees are always helpful.

I got the 6L ones to give room to expand. Tested with water and eyeballing it I was able to fill each with 1.25 Gallons each time which gave enough extra room for expansion. Most likely I will only carry one extra bag as that would be around 98 miles then to a tank.

I'll be doing a review after this week as that is the testing date out in Moab, UT. Looking forward to this trip Thursday can not come soon enough.

Pretty interesting this Dromedary Bag. Does it really last with fuel inside? I guess the material isnt made for fuel, also the sealings on the cap. For how long do you guys use this bag for carrying fuel? Do you have any pictures where you mounted it on the bikes?

Clark isn't far from where i live. I wonder if they need a 12 to fit a tank too? I'm guessing there may not be enough need for them to spend the r&d, idk.

That's about what I can get on my 250. Since I ride mostly single track, I'm done before the tank is.........

I emailed Clarke and they said my email will be fowarded to research and development. I live fairly close and let them know i have a 12 they could use. Maybe more people should show interest by emailing them.
