I saw a picture of a military klr with the large fuel tank, but the
tank looked different then my military tank. This one had side vent
holes in the shroud and the top section near the seat looked taller.
Does IMS have a new version of the KLR military tank? I never felt my
tank neede the side vents, but the could be to stiffen the tank for
side impact.
I uploaded a picture to the photo section of this group
this is the link (if it works)

That is one of the great things about these user groups, maybe we can all learn from each
other....
again, thanks!!

At ESR III Matt had one of those new bad boys. He was telling us the
military requested the vents for extra cooling so its become the new
IMS model. In part it explains why the big tanks became a short
supply, there was the period when IMS had to switch over the mold.
