I think I have read this thread so many times, it isn't sinking in anymore. 
Still have a question though, will a tank from an '04 s4r (steel) fit on an '05 s2r?   ???

Thanks.

You'll need all the internals and a frame bracket (bolt on bracket) for the steel tank. You'll also need the large bung that the cap bolts to

What does this look like and what is its purpose?

On a plastic tank the part on the tank is like a tube and the bracket on the frame has two ears.

On a steel tank the bracket on the frame is a tube and the tank has the ears.

Best I can do.

DP,
I'm not finding anything like what you're describing on the parts fiche from Ducati.com.  What is the purpose of the frame bracket you are describing?  I'm sorry for my ineptitude on this subject.  :P

The pieces that DP is referring to hold the tank to the frame, right where the seat is. (Basically where your nuts would wind up if you grabbed a handfull of front brake). it's just different between the plastic tanks and the metal ones.

In this image the bracket is #19


The parts you'd need are  #22 and 23.

You also need #16,18, 19 (x8) and 21.

The associated pins and bushings may or may not work from your plastic set-up.

I was looking at that micro fiche, but didn't recognise those parts for what DP was talking about.  Thanks for clearing that up.

Went  through the entire thread.  No definitive answer for 2007 Ducati Monster S2R800 compatibility.

I have a 2005 620 and was wondering if a 2007 Ducati Monster S2R800 tank would fit on it?

2007 MS2R800 tank 586.1.044.1[CJ>Redw/white stripe/BT>Black]

If your tank is plastic it will fit

I just realized that my bike is a 2005 but it has a metal tank so i guess its an early 2005 with a 2004 metal tank?

I was planning on purchasing a new tank but now I am confused on which tanks Im limited to and what I have to do about the fuel pump because it is not the same as the one in the 2005 diagram.  The system I have looks more like the one in the 2004 diagram.  =(

fuel pump, hoses, etc..  and hinge are different between the metal and plastic tanks, but the gas cap and latch are the same.

Thanks guys.  So basically I am restricted to finding a 2002 - 2004 metal tank.

Because the pump on the plastic tank cost more than teh tank it self.
