THE TANK IS MADE FOR THE VRP ALUMINUM FRAME BUT IT CAN BE ADAPTED TO THE OEM STEEL FRAME. SINCE THE ALUMINUM TANK HAS A WIDER TUNNEL THEN THE ORIGINAL IT WILL REQUIRE EXTRA RUBBER PADDING TO BE PLACED IN BETWEEN THE FRAME AND THE TANK. THE TANK IS PART OF A SMALL BATCH WE COMMISSIONED VRP IN ITALY TO BUILD. VRP IS THE ORIGINAL COMPANY THAT IN THE 1980's AND'90s BUILT SIMILAR ALUMINUM PARTS FOR HRC HONDA CR125 AND 250.
AT THE TIME NO CR500 PARTS WERE BUILT. ALL ALUMINUM COMPONENTS ARE HAND BUILT USING THE HIGHEST QUALITY MATERIALS AND CRAFTMANSHIP.
PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT DUE TO THE NATURE OF HAND MADE PRODUCTS ASSEMBLY MAY REQUIRED MINOR ADJUSTMENTS FOR PROPER FITMENT. CONDITION: NEW, HAND BUILT IN ITALY. International Buyers - Please Note.
