Fuel tank for VMC 2008

Post by markot »

Hi, is there someone who can tell which year's fuel tank I can put on my frame VMC m.y. 2008. I have seen that VMC 2010 has got a Yamaha fuel tank and plastic.
I tried on my sidecar a fuel tank Yamaha 2008 but it's not possible. Can you tell me if the frame VMC 2010 is different from VMC 2008 or if they has used a fuel tank of another year?
Thank you very much.

Hello Marco,
As far as I know the 2009 and older VMC has their own VMC fuel tank.
The 2010 version of the frame is new and adapted to Yamaha plastics.
This was also possible at VMC/Hocob before.
If you order a new frame you can choose which plastic you want and the frame/brackests will be changed.
