HAWT!!!!  I don't think I've ever seen one in person....   oh man, that's rather drool-worthy.

Renaissance in Tucson had one around '97 when I was going to buy my first bike.  I didn't like the chrome though.  I'd  take one now though.

Not really my thing, but I wonder how is it like riding at high noon with all that reflection from the tank right in your eyes?   ???

Actually Its not bad.  My polished brake/clutch reservoir caps give me more reflection problems than the tank.  Tanks not in my line of sight.

Lookin good!!!


I spy some new triples...

John,
did you ever put those Sil "bundle of snakes" headers on?


As far as the "chrome being in your eyes" as already mentioned the tank is under your body for the most part so it's a non issue. But things in front like triples/clip ons and such that are shiny tend to reflect and become an issue.

Nice! I miss my Cromo.

They're also easier to keep clean than painted ones IMO. Chrome is durable...just spray it with windex and wipe it off!  [thumbsup]
