| Hi everyone, I have a 1999 Marauder 800 import to the UK. I really need a new fuel tank as my one is very rusty inside. I have looked on the internet and I can see several tanks for the VZ model. Do you think these will fit my bike please ? Thanks for any info. | |

| How much is a replacement? Would a restoration be an option? How bad is it? | |

| Hi Badger, Thanks for the reply. The tank is just pretty rusty inside although the outside is undamaged. Are there places that do restoration to clean inside do you know please ? Also, having looked around on the internet I am still struggling with the difference between the VX and the VZ versions of this bike. I have even looked on a site to check from the PIN number and the result was a VZ, which apparently is not the same !!!!???? as a VX ??? | |

There are a few around, you may find that however shitty it looks to you, it may be a bread and butter job for a specialist company, Make sure the cost ain't more than a new tank mind. Don't forget about the colour match of any new tank to your bike. | |
