Title: WTB- Any year tank that has solid metal. Surface rust is fine.
Post by: Willyboy on June 07, 2023, 04:41:54 PM
Hey guys, looking for a lifeline on a a pre 2001 tank for my 1999. My tank is full of pinhole and is too far gone to coat. Happy to pay shipping and any somewhat reasonable asking price.  :) located in Plymouth MA

If you have trouble finding one (they are getting more and more rare), you could consider fitting the larger '01+ style tank to your '99 bike. The '01+ tanks can be easier to find sometimes.

There are many threads about this throughout the forum but this is the one I've found most helpful over the years:

Thanks wolf, that is an excellent idea. I will keep poking around looking for part outs and stuff, in the meantime I will update the tile.
