Large tank xt600e 2003

Hi does anyone know if acerbis make a tank that fits an xt600e 2003 all the tanks on tourtech seem to have application dates ending late 90s. Is there any difference or will the tank fit with a little work ?.

Acerbis do a 23L one - bought mine from David Lambeth in the UK, but Racespec (www.racespec.co.uk) used to do them. The Acerbis product numbers can be found at http://www.acerbis.com/ecat/bikeframe.html.
I've had one for ~24months on my 02 XT600e and it's excellent, taken lots of abuse and taken me > 300 miles a few times with no filling up!

Cheers
Bish
