The silver CBX is owned by a guy local to me and Jim.  He's had it from new and it has lived in his lounge by the state of it!!

The black one is a US import as we only had silver and red in UK.

Google "The Tank Shop". I seem to remember they have one in aluminium.  Not Cheap.

Nippon posted recently with a link to German firm making all sorts of nice tanks and seats - I think I saw a similar tank for a Honda  there.

                    Have you never heard of Greg or ohiocaferacers.com? Check them out. Greg
          is building some really sharp tanks and he's expanding his line to eventually cover most all the
          SOHC4s. He has a 350 twin that has one on it. You really need to check it out. He's also
          posted pictures on this site, although I can't really say where right off. I usually have to look
          around for any post, that covers a subject being discussed. Later on, Bill

          I totally agree, I envy anyone who owns, has ridden, has seen or has even heard it and I
          don't even want to know about someone who has done it all!  Nothing sounds better than a
          well built and tuned Four going through the gears (with a 4into1, IMOHO) Later on, Bill

 Thanks for the replys, I'll check around. I had planned on useing the Aitr Tech CR750 tank, as they have one to fit the 500 frame.
But I like the narrowtank better.

Thanks again
