actually 89-2001 tanks are the same.
They changed the tank, seat and bodywork in 2002.

And the 01+ will fit with minor mods to the seat and I think you need the old 01 and down tank brackets  :thumb:

Only off by one year, Bob.  ;)  The change happened in 2001.

Bolt-on replacement tanks would be from 1989 to 2000.
