Title: Gas Tank Support Brackets
Post by: fr86k20 on May 12, 2010, 07:11:28 pm: Does anyone know if they are available? Mine are rotted. Do they come with new straps? I checked 's catalog and they dont seem to list them. The do seem to have them for the 88-98 style.
Thanks, Fran

The dealer here including tax were $92.00 for both brackets with straps included. Maybe just got lucky on the price.
