thanks man for the reply
it's a good idea to put a tank of another model but this kawi has a particular frame and engine different from the other kawi models so i think it's not possible
maybe i'm going to try with fiberglass as you say .....a question,does fiberglass stick on alluminium?

Yea fiberglass will hold you just need to put a rough finish on the metal aka use something like a 40 grit sand paper
