I recognise that 1098 alloy tank as being on eBay a couple of months ago (I think). What are your plans for it Dennis?
Actually I found that tank local... A small independent shop I deal with had a used 848 with it, and I was able to score a deal where I found a plastic tank for the bike in exchange for the alloy one. one of those "right place right time" deals I plan on having it refinished in Red with some bare alloy exposed this winter.
It would appear that the message I was referring to, that was posted after 4.5 years of thread inactivity has now been removed. @Ducbird Feel free to lock or amend thread as appropriate.
