TonyR Posted March 24, 2002 Share Posted March 24, 2002 I am considering adding the tank protection kit to my SL order. Does anyone know what Caterham charge to include the tank protection on a new kit? TonyR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Barbie Posted March 24, 2002 Share Posted March 24, 2002 Just looked at my SL invoice (from June last year), the cost then was £102 - I assume you are talking about the honeycomb protection. It's actually quite a lot of money for what you get, simply some honeycomb panels cut roughly to fit and glued in place. I think it would help a bit in the event of a rear shunt but if I was placing my order again, I think I'd go for the bag tank as it is a better way to protect yourself. I think you have to live without a fuel gauge then though, but if you can do that, that's what I'd do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevefoster Posted March 24, 2002 Share Posted March 24, 2002 Tank bag needs repalcing periodically I believe at least for competition use. The honeycomb kit I have is not that crude. Honey comb is quite expense as a raw material. It still won't help a front tow hook intrusion from 'Mr not looking where he's driving his tin top' but will help a Caterham nose up the rear end or a backward trip into the tyre wall at speed.
