Handmade Alloy CR750 tank...
« on: March 01, 2010, 01:47:41 pm »
...is what I am thinking of doing. I want to convert my F2 to a street going CR, but am iffy on a fibre tank on the street.

Does anyone know where I may find dimensions or even a pattern?

Thanks

WHOOOOO!! Pricey! But looks well worth the cash, seeing as I need to face reality and realize I will probably never get off my butt and build one myself. I just may go with the tail section too. That tank looks too good to paint, I may change my mind and go with a "Shinya Style" custom with tons of holes and polished aluminum. See, that's the problem. I get an idea in my head of what I want,and then I see something that makes me change my mind, and I end up taking too long or not doing it at all.


Thanks for the lead on Roccity though!
