Is there a difference between the 76 cr125 and 250 fuel tanks? I need a tank for my 250 and want to know if a 125 will work. thanks

The CR125 tanks are a different shape and hold less and are made of steel, not aluminum like the CR250 tanks. As for the hole alignment in mounting the 125 on the 250 I couldn't say, but I'm sure someone else on the forums has tried it and will post an answer.

You can use the clarke RC plastic tank for both the 125 and the 250.
I bought 3 new tanks from clarke and have them on both my 76 & 77 125's and on my 75 250 which is the same as the 76 250. they do not use the rear bolt mount. The seat and a few plastic zip ties works. Make sure you get the fuel valve they have those available also.

I was not able to add images. Not sure how to. My lack of knowledge. If you send e-mail to mailto:flashptA10@AOL.co I will e-mail pics. Then maybe you can post for me.

Mitchie, I'll try to post: I had the clark RC tank on my MR for a while. In the picture, i'm usin g a CR seat, it fit the back of the tank better.
To Mount: I used 2 big rubber corks that fit the round hole in the fron gussets, drilled a hole to fit a long mounting bolt that went thru the tank, cork, frame, ect. The tank mounting holes are a few inches short of the stock threaded bosses.
Switched tanks after I ran out of gas on the trails. RC tanks looked cool, but not big enough for trail riding!
