Anyone got a 690 fuel tank they want to sell ?
 

I have just brought a 2012 KTM 690.
The rear rack had cracked then come apart on a long tour and had to be cut off with a hacksaw.
To cut a long story short there are three bolt threads now protruding from the fixings on the tank.
When i tried to remove them with an extraction tool the threaded metal inserts which they screw into just turned around.
So if anyone has a tank for sale i would be keen to talk to them.
I know i could get all Mcgyver on it but i would prefer to fit a factory made part if i can.
I am based in the UK but would be prepared to do a deal with anyone regardless, even the french !!!

Thanks for taking the time to read my post.

Part numbers ?
 

I have found various KTM 690 tanks however they are all pre 2011 and have the part number 7650701304433A

Mine is a 2012 and has the part number 7560701314433A

The only difference is the 9th numerical which is a 0 in all models pre 2010
and a 1 in all models 2011-2013.
in all models 2013 onward it is a 2

I know they are obviously different in some way but does anyone have any experience of trying to fit an older tank to a newer model who can tell me if it will fit and what the differences are ?

Might be worth speaking to John Mitchinson at Rally Raid who produces a whole range of 690 Rally parts, he's very knowledgeable about the differences across the model years.

Thanks for taking the time to get back to me on this issue.

I am going to have a crack at McGyvering it this weekend and if that fails i will give him a shout.

Many thanks

Just saw this now so probably too late, but I've got a 690 Enduro/SMC rear tank I'd sell if you still need it.

Send me a PM.

Cheers,
