I need one because mine is cracked around the kick start shaft bore. I can pay for it straight up or trade for some CNC machined stuff. Appearance is not a factor; only that the cover is cheap, functional, and not cracked or repaired. Thanks. Jimmy

I would try a 90 degree open fitting out of the tank to a remote petcock. The petcock can be as simple as an 'on/off' valve or a real remote (with reserve) taken from certain models of jet skis, 4 wheelers, or (I think) some models of the CR450 honda. All bolt on stuff with no welding. Jimmy

I even spread the tunnel with a small screw jack and there is simply not enough room in the tunnel to clear the stock...

That picture was just a mock up picture I happenned to have on my phone. As soon as I get back home I'll take a couple of better pictures for you.

I think its easier to re-make the top motor mount to something like this than to section the tank, but thats just my opinion. Jimmy
