Hi all,
So I'm looking into getting a new seat and tank for my dr650. I have narrowed my choices between a sargent seat and corbin seat. and clarke tank and IMS tank. I know the IMS is bigger but i heard there might be problems with it? I would like to hear about anybody having a setup with any of these. Also is a clear tank really necessary ? I would like to go with a black one. I thought i might be able to just keep track of my kms. Any thoughts would help.
Thanks

I have two Corbins, and two IMS tanks, clear and white. It's been a great combination overall on the DR650. The clear tank shows your fuel level, but yellows over time, then looks like hell. IMS issue is the cheap fuel valve gasket. Replace with an o-ring, problem solved. Get the new Sargent seat, it is much lighter. :)

Thx Buck,
I have decided to pull the trigger on a black IMS tank and a Sargent seat. The IMS tank cause ....well ...it just holds more fuel,;), and if i get the o ring then all will be good with it. And the Sargent seat because of the costumer service and well you mentioned that it was lighter. Thanks again.
