I would love to have that TT500. To bad it is so far away. Had one some years
back and really loved it.

Other than long range, the benefit to the other tanks is it makes the weight
of the gas sit lower, making the bike handle better off-road

Brian :
Lets go riding sometime . I did post the list twice by mistake. I just got gp110 IRC tires and have not had a chance to try them. . . but they look Ok to me. I will ride on the street at least half the time . My tele # is 503-661-6878. $100 seems a little high how about 75.00, Ironically the old owner called me and left a messae about the tank, He just bought a '99 dr350es (lucky dog) He left a message and I will call Him soon.
Isn't there a law in that requires a metal tank be used as part of DOT for operating a motor vechicle on the street? Anyone want to take this one ?
