907IE Fuel Tank Wanted

Post by arp489j »

New or good secondhand 907IE tank wanted. Paint condition not that important but must be rust-free internally.

Thanks.

Many thanks. I had a good look at the photos. It looks like a 907IE tank from above but the base and connections are quite different to my bike and looks like it is for a carburetor bike - 906 / 750 - and not for injection ? ? ? ? ?

If that is indeed a 750/906 tank I don`t understand why it has the 907ie design, specially as it is new and unused.
But then maybe it was a late friday afternoon and someone in the factory didn`t pay attention ...

That is defo' a 907ie tank if you read the description there is some outer cardboard panels sprayed over on the underside that hide the other relevant apertures. That would not fit a 906 or 750 unless you adjusted the Petcock attachment for the fuel supply.

sadly even at £260 with the 50% discount it's a whole lotta money for a fuel tank.

there`s one picture taken through the filler hole. That on the right is the mount for the electric fuel pump.
The description confuses me a bit. Maybe there were different 907ie gas tanks.

Many thanks. 260 quid is a lot of money but as my existing one is rotten then I'm running out of options. As the fork stanchions are going to take a while then I shall wait to see if another comes up...

The shot through the fuel cap hole shows a very limited view of the fuel pump mount, and the clips where the degasser sits too.

The shot of the bottom of the tank is a bit odd, or I may have missed it. The return line is there, the hole for the NRV is there, but only one breather is there? 95% rule (close enough is good enough!)?

A little while back G posted a French bike shop that had various parts. The Web site was http://italbikeshop.fr/

If it comes good, I will have one in Anthracite please....

Hope it helps.

Cheers.

Nick.

There is a variation in 907 tanks. I have seen one with a single breather while most have 2.

Since the tank on my 907 is currently unbolted with the hoses disconnected I had a look at the underside. Unlike the one in on eBay it has 4 hose fittings. From the front they are fuel delivery, fuel return, drain, vent. The one on eBay appears to be missing the drain pipe.
This a picture of the underside of my tank.

Thanks. That is the same as my current tank. Although neither the bleed or drain pipes were connected when I got the bike... Luckily I didn't ride it....

I also have a brand new red 907 tank if you need one. Bought it new from Bologna years ago. Unfortunately there is a small dent at one of the front corners due to transportation damage.
Cheers, Mark
