Newbie, needing a 954rr gas tank

sexmnypwr · 05-08-2006, 10:47 PM

Hello group, actually I'm not a newbie, more of a longtime lurker. Great insight on this list. I'm a longtime Fireblade rider, since '95 I've owned nothing but Fireblades.
I had an old man pull a left in front of me last Thursday. I pulled a stoppie and ended up catapulting on top of his Dodge Ram truck, put a 6" deep body indentation on his hood and flew off the other side. Luckily wearing full gear so the damage was only to my knee. Nothing broken but bruised all to hell. Still I consider myself lucky, I could've gone straight into the side of his truck instead and stopped...that would have sucked.
Anyway, if anyone has one I need a 954rr gas tank and double bubble windshield also. Most of the fairing damage I'm going to just repair and repaint. Thanks a lot for any help on this.

Street is bad. Track is good.

Just go the Ron Ayers route for the tank, you never know what you're getting used.

I ended up picking up one used on Ebay for $75, sandblasted and cleaned out the inside, looks good. Thank you for everyone who sent me PM's and their suggestions.
Up and riding soon....
