Dansk fuel tank
« on: June 04, 2018, 01:04:00 »
One vendor of the Dansk 82 L tank states that it doesn't have the same internal baffles as the original.  Now that this tank has been on the market for a while what have experiences been?   Does it have all other attributes of the original?

Hi, George,

I fitted one about 2 years ago.
It is made of a much lighter material and get easily damaged during shipping/handling.
I had to knock the filler neck back into position.
Fit well after that.
The flower pot arrangement is not the same as original but seems to work OK.
Haven't put on many miles since fitting.

I believe there are no other baffles in the original tank other than the flower pot.
