IMS 4.5 Gallon Tally!

From your past discussions with Chuck, what would you guess would be a ball park/realistic availability date?
Considering they are working on tooling now and such and it is mid July I would be thinking September or so? Not in a rush but instead thinking of a budget to pile away the money.

Yeah, I's say that's a safe bet.

I am interested!

I am interested.

Definitely interested.

Hi Shewolf,
Thanks for all the help with these tanks I am very intrested in the 4.5 but I have a few questions:
Will it wrap around the radiator and provide protection like the safari?
Will it incorporate the stock plastics? (I hope not they rip like paper)
If it incorporates the plastics can it run without them and still look good?
Can it be shipped to Australia?
And most importantaly can we have more pics?

Thanks for any help Shewolf and you might want to let IMS know there will be strong demand for that tank over here and most riders arn't aware of it (safari has ads in the bike mags here).

The tank will not use the stock plastics. It will have rad protection like the Safari. The look will be more streamlined. I don't have any pics at this time, but I'm sure Chuck will flip them along when he gets more.

Thanks Shewolf
Put me down as very intersted in a white tank.

I"m very interested in the 4.5 gallon tank. 250 mile range? Definitely want to see this puppy and the price.

I'm very interested too - I'm not too worried about the looks but price will be an issue especially since I'll need it shipped here to Ireland.
Thanks.

I'm in on the 4.5 Gal
performance exceeds colour, eh?

Hello from France! I'm very interested too (a white one, but the tank must be here before March 2011, i'm preparing the bike for a Rallye in 04/2011).

Regards,

Olivier.

interested, but i guess i should get a bike first.
piece by piece.

In for a yamaha blue tank.

Greetings oh lovely lady of the North. Any additional word on the forthcoming receptacle of dead dinosaurs, also known as the IMS 4.5 Gallon Fuel tank for our beloved blue bombers (aka WR250R)?

Warm regards, guardian of the everlasting curiosity flame.

Hey guys, so far nothing has been said in regards to the big tank. They are still trying to push the 3 gallon out, and I haven't seen any more pics in regards to the 4.5. I'll shoot Chuck another line and see how things are looking for the grandpappy. Jeez it feels weird not being on here every day. Funny how work does that.

Thanks for keeping tabs on the 4.5 for us.........

Shewolf,
Now that production has started on the 3.0 have you heard or seen anything from Chuck regarding the prodress on the 4.5
Thanks

Posted the latest pic in the IMS oversize thread. They put it on hold to finish the 3 gallon one, but will be getting back to it ASAP. I'll keep updating as it progresses.

Hey Woofy,

I am filling up 2-3 times per week, so I am dropping off the 3gal list.

Can I still be put on the 4.5 list?

Thanks


Oh, in Yamaha BLUE please

In for the 4.5.

I can put you in.

I noticed my name wasn't on the list. Responded on page 2 I believe.

Might I have opted in on ADV? Don't recall. Too many forums.

Remove me from the 3 gal and put me on the big guy list

I’m trying to be patient with this 4.5gal wait but there’s going to be snow on the ground by the time we get to see anything! The cash is burning a whole in my wallet!

I can't remember, I am down for a white one?
