Heheh, thanks for noticing the tanks, guys.
I did up a
special webpage to highlight the tank and its various useful configurations.
It's available in colors ... and from only a couple feet away, it looks great ... just like the studio pics of the red bike. In person, it actually looks pretty cool ... especially with the front fairing removed. It gets lots of double takes from people that ride japanese-made bikes.
But, yeah, it's intent is to let a person get through corners better than with the stock tank. And the other motive is to give a generally good looking tank to folks for a lot less $ than OEM tanks. And some folks just want to have a different look.
I took a 200+ mile canyon ride this weekend (first in years!) and I'm really liking the tank and how it is shaped. I've been commuting with the tank on my S2R 800 and it's been getting 135~145 miles on 3.3 to 3.5 gallons of fuel. It ran out on me once and took 3.9 gallons to fill.
Thanks ... please don't hesitate to call us with questions. If you buy one and don't like it, we'll refund your money. If you think you might like it, we'll send you one to look at and take your money only if you say you want to keep it. What's the catch? You pay the shipping.
