Title: WTB: A fuel tank that will fit a 1997 GS500E
Post by: ultranothing on August 11, 2011, 07:17:59 PM
I dropped my bike at the gas station today, it fell into the metal post and now I've got a huge dent in the left side of the tank. 

The rest of the bike is Midnight blue sparkle, but I really don't care about the color.  I'll get it painted someday - I just need a gas tank.

You can reply to me here or at my email nothingultra@gmail.com

Thanks everybody!

It might help if you remember to put your LOCATION in the thread, or update your profile. That will save time for you and anyone you do business with, because it makes calculating shipping charges MUCH simpler.

SO, that being said, WHERE ARE YOU? I know someone with a good tank (89-00 version) who MIGHT be convinced to sell it, but he's deployed right now. I'll send him an e-mail tonight; if he tells me that he wants to sell it, I'll ask his brother to handle the details with you.

Hope you get your '97 back on the road soon...

Yeah, that MIGHT help!  :)

I'm from Connecticut.  06442 is the zip.

And I'm still on the road, I just don't look so cool anymore :)

I know I said it didn't matter, but do you know what color it is? 

And hey, thanks a lot for looking out!

I think oregon250exc has a tank from the 89 he parted out. It is about $45 or so UPS ground to ship across the country. Someone else I think has a purple one on your side of the country.

Is it ok to bump this?  Oops, too late...
