Tank liner

[Fitzy]

Just cleaned the rest of my tank liner out that has been falling apart for the last 2 years, question is do i reline it or not, its not rusting and doesn't leak id like to reline it as it was lined from new just dont want that shit falling apart again ??

 

[Mr. Wright]

It is not necessary to line it again if it is not leaking. Just keep an eye on it

 

[Fitzy]

Thats what i was thinking dont want to go through that again
Cheers

Are you sure you have it all out, otherwise it will keep peeling apart.

If it's clean inside, I would never reline it. When you park it for any extended time, keep the tank full of gas.

John, this may be the only time I question you.
But I think that other things should be considered before that choice is made.
If the bike is stored in a hot enviroment during the day ( over say 75F) and temp drops at night, I'd be worried about the evaporation of the gas and condensation of water (depending on humidity locally) getting into the tank, especially with an ethanol blend.
If you go this route, I'd at least recommend getting a cheap endoscope so you can check the tank (I picked up one from china that attaches to my cell phone for less than $10).

Just my thoughts, I know in my trailer where my bike is stored, evaporation is an issue (have had gas can deform over a couple months)
