Get a long thin 4mm piece of aluminium, drill two holes one end, a single bend and another hole to attach to the frame.

This arrangement had lasted my girlfriend and I a combined 130,000km. It's simple and cheap

Totally TTRs fitting kit for Acerbis 22 litre tank to metal tank Open Enduro

 Do you have any pics of how you ran the fuel lines across?

Just run the right hand side one between the carb and the top of the cylinder,  as long as it is not touching the engine it will be fine 👍

Just twiddling my thumbs and over researching while waiting for the tank to arrive next week. On a side note, I attempted to repair the crack in the tank with Dynagrip putty which apparently can be used on plastic and ok with petrol. Seemed to work, didn't overfill the tank and had a 10km ride around town. 2 days later, warm day and it just peeled off. Not flexible enough I guess with tank expansion
