This question is easier than usual. Does anyone know who else besides gasbike.net sell the 4-litre happytime tanks? (They're out of stock and I'm impatient)
N.B. Wasn't sure whether to post here or in 2-Stroke Engines. Hope I guessed right.

Pistonbikes.com has them as well. I'd add a tank sealer though I just had mine fail, started leaking through the mounting stud nearest the petcock.

leaky 4l tank

I just ordered two of 4l jobs from pistonbikes.com. $40 each and about $17 for shipping.

Ordered Thursday, arrived following Wednesday. Installed that night.

One started leaking this morning at the stud as you described.

I have an email in to the company's item return email address. I asked if they would pay return shipping and send me a new one.

Anyone know how well they respond?
 
Thanks for the info, guys. I'll check out pistonbikes.com
I wonder if I'll get a better one if I make mention of the problem that you both had. Delivery to Australia will cost an arm and a leg - I wouldn't want to get a dud and have to return it.
I'll have to look into tank sealers, I'm not sure what's available.

Most radiator shops seal gas tanks. Should only cost about $20, if I were to buy a kit it'd be around $60.

With tank price, delivery and sealing I'd be up for about $110AU. A bit hot, but it's still better than finding another tank and modifying it to fit.

Dax(Duane) is a VERY reputable vendor & i've bought many things from him,none of which were faulty(eg,rusty tank from another vendor :mad: )......if your interested email him & confirm 3L & get a full price.
