    Hello All.

    I just noticed that the fuel tank of my 2011 Scrambler has a lot of freeplay at the front. I can move sideways. I checked underneath and the two rubber stops on the frame are there. I dont see any other brackets that could hold it in place.



    Is this normal? It would be great if someone could check on their bike.

    Also I noticed that their are no heath shield stickers underneath the tank. (see pictures, the green one is mine). I found a parts website stating this is only needed in the USA. Is this correct?
