Title: WTB 89-00 Gas Tank Richmond, Va area
Post by: scotch_rocket on May 24, 2008, 08:11:02 PM
I've got this idea to mount a hinge on the Tank and then to the frame so the tank swings up to make engine service easier...BUT I don't wanna F*** up my current tank so I want a junk tank to try out.  If anyone out there has an 89-00 GS tank they're gonna junk and they're in the Richmond, Va area, let me know so maybe we can work out a deal.  I'm certain I can make this work and if I can, I plan to document everything so I can post it.  Thanks for the help mates.

Most newer sport bikes do that, they also have a little stand built in to hold it llike a car hood prop  :thumb:

i think that thats a cool Mod idea for the GS  :thumb: Hope you can get it fabed up  :cheers:

Thats the plan.  I'm always under the tank doing something and I always get the itch right after I fill up.   :icon_rolleyes:
Just a little something to do once the weather turns bad.  Hope I can get it done and posted soon so anyone interested can do it too.   :thumb:
