Topic: CR750 oil tank (BARTEL) on ebay but RARE?!

[lordmoonpie]

CR750 oil tank on ebay for anyoe who's interested BUT contrary to sellers belief these are not rare....they cost about £350 GBP and to get one of these rare items you have to go through this tortuous process:

1. Google Bartel in Donaghadee Northern Ireland and note down the phone number
2. Ring number, ask for tank, pay with credit card

Alternatively - go to mead speed's website to buy the very same tank.

Why is it that everything on ebay is rare these days!?

Yeah we had a posting recently on our local Craigslist recently for a "rare" Honda 750 for sale. If so, I guess my four have pretty much cornered the market around here.....

The CR750 tank is relisted!

I wonder what it will go for this time?  I also wonder if the Meadspeed tank is currently available, what it really costs (if the prices are current), and what shipping would be.  $670 is actually a good price for these things.

peace and grease,

Yes the Meadspeed (Bartel) tank is still available. Asa knocks them out of his Bartel workshops every couple of months or so and they are really excellent quality. Meedspeed resell them but with a mark up obviously...
