    This is very common E34 wear item, and we would be happy to design an upgrade replacement. Not trying to step on toes or reinvent the wheel, if extremebimmer is stepping production back up!

    i just replaced my leaky ass tank for a non leaky one. my tank was leaking in 3 places. i think one area was at the straps... i just wire brushed it and reused mine.

    One of my straps just broke today on the touring. Where is the best place to get a pair of straps these days? Xtreme bimmer's site is down.

    As I saw my new 540, my fourth Oxford Green 540 6 speed since 2006 being loaded up onto the flatbed I noticed the fuel tank straps were heavily rusted so I figured this would be a good thread to post this video of it.
