I have a split coolant reservior overflow tank.

I want to do the fix described in the 907ie tech section.

I cant find the photograph that I know is there. I've seen it before.

Could someone please direct me to the pic?

Thanks

Sheldon

Hi Jon.

I did do a weld of sorts (didn't know there was a post on that) but I'm not confident it will hold to 13 psi so I figured the right thing to do is the do the de-pressurize the bottle trick using the Honda filler neck. That's the pic I want.

I did the fix with the Honda part today. I bought a coolant neck for a CBR1000 on Ebay and it fit just fine using the hoses and clamps that came with it. It only took about an hour to install the neck. Busy day, I also replaced all the fuel lines, and coated the fuel tank with POR 15. I purchase the Napa Auto fuel pump and will install it after the POR 15 sets up

What CBR 1000 MY?
Since the 906/907 coolant tank is no more available, it's a good trick.
Could you put some photo of the "new" tank fitted on the bike?
Ciao

Sheldon,

You avatar pic needs to be uploaded again and maybe put in your location?

John

I havent tried to use an Avatar yet. Will do so. Really need that picture though- the one of the Honda Coolant neck installed. Could you direct me to it or post it againn or PM me?

Thanks

Sheldon

when the coolant tank is welded properly it will hold.
I did mine 3 years ago and still holds.
the welding costed me only € 15 and an hour drive.

A pic on page 2 of the install.

Sheldon, I have some pics of the CBR 1000 coolant neck I just put on my bike. Not sure how to send them thru this site though. You can email me at xshelbyoner@hotmail.com and I'll send them to you.

Preston,

This are instruction on how to inset pictures into your post at the top of the 907 forum.

Sheldon.
I got a coolant reservoir for a Kawasaki EX250 and it fits fine where the Ducati tank was. Two small brackets can be easily made to mount it to the original bracket behind the headlight. I should have it mounted tomorrow. Send me your email address again if you want pictures. I got it on ebay for $15 with shipping. This is a permanent fix .
