I found a 06 CRF250 for $750, I am wondering if the stock gas tank will have to be heated and pushed in on the bottom?? I am thinking of buying it.

If you doing a 500 build, yes it will. We used the shortest plug to make the heating area as small as possible.

yeah, doing a conversion....I forgot to mention that, thanks for the info.
One more question, is it a hard process to form the tank?

Look at Bob's tank thread. I bought a Chinese tank that fits and does not need to be heated, it only hold just over a gallon though.

We did an Acerbis and a stock tank. The stock tank was more difficult that the Acerbis because the plastic on the stock tank is different than the Acerbis, along with the square edges.
