does anybody know by chance whether an oil tank from a 98 S1W is interchangeable with a 99 M2 tank? The numbers in the parts books are different, the pics the same and I cannot think of a reason why anything might be different.... I need a tank for a S1W....
Thanks for any insight.
:-)

I don't believe so. IIRC when I spoke with Al about the M2 and S1 aluminum tank differences, it wouldn't happen because the holes are different and in different spots.

If you see here:

The M2 and S3 tanks are interchangeable, but the S1 is specific, as well as the X1.

different shape, different mount, not good.
I should have my old S1 oil tank still here, send me an email and see if we can come up with something...

rock on...Maybe it was just the aluminum ones, because Al and I were talking about it and he said those definitely wouldn't fit.

Anyways, I have an M2 tank I'm not going to be using...I also have a Banke Oil Cap/Dipstick I am selling as well.
