Can anyone tell if this is a Suzuki or Rotax tank? I know that the rotax tank needs a recess on the underside to fit over the top of the rotax engine. As I can't see the underside, is there any other way to tell? Apparently, this one is from a 2002 Dual Sport, which I guess is a black frame bike? Is it likely to fit my grey frame 2000 rotax bike? ![]()

im pretty sure that they made a few 644's in 2002. can the seller not answer the question as there is no other way to tell them apart. |

2002 was a change over year, both engines were used. chances are its a suzy tank, 150 sqid just for a tank is a lot. |

I did - on Monday. I said Hi, and asked if he knew if it was from a rotax bike. He emailed back to say "Minimum £250 - Call me if you want it". Not the most helpful seller in the world huh?! |

The rotax one has this curved recess on the underside, where it fits over the top of the rotax engine![]() This is the top view.. ![]() What condition / colour is yours? Please drop me a PM if you're interested in selling it. |

Side panels and airbox are Rotax so the tank probably is,if you want a yellow bike thats not a bad deal to me if it stays at that price. |

Thanks Cuz. I'll keep an eye on it. Would it matter if they're from a black framed bike and my frame is grey? |

grey/black Paioli/wp the same except earlier ones have a bigger fuel cap. Earlier Marzocchi have different indentations for(what looks like) the handle bar clamps but they fit the wp/paioli as well. |

I would say its definitely a 644 fuel tank - in the second pic you can see the recess for the radiator on the left inner side (seen from front)...hopefully I`m wrong :( Chris |

Thanks Chris. I think you might be right. I've just been out to look at my rotax one and it doesn't have that long recess (where I guess the radiator would go). |

I have had a lot of rotax tanks over the years, small and large and none have had the recessed filler cap area. I would say definately 644. |

Well spotted Chris. I remember on the old site that there was talk of a tank that fitted both when they moved from Rotax to Suzuki,which would be 2002. I have never seen one,anyone got one of these? The only sure way of finding out if this is one of them is to get the guy to photo the underneath. |
