Default Re: Fuel tank prices

I want one too, my bike got blown over in the wind in February and damaged the tank quite badly. It is a juggling act to decide whether to put it through insurance and lose no claims and pay the excess or take it on the chin and pay Suzuki £450+

I went to my local dealer and he said "fsssshchhsshhsschsh" too. He also said that Suzuki were only showing 3 in stock

Im looking for a perfect one in upside down gixxer colors

Ok I will keep looking

Thanks for all your replies. I'd be utterly delighted if a decent one came up for £60, can't see it happening though. I'm tempted to buy a slightly cr*p one and do it up, I was a mechanic for some while but I always left the scary witchcraft of paintwork to someone else so I'm always a bit wary.

Got one for £30 off this very site a couple of weeks back.
Black, and has a number of scratches on it, but didn't bother me as it's just going on the bike for now, and it'll be re-painted with some other bits come winter...

That's not a bad price at all if it really is mint. I got my spare for about a tenner, but it looked like something had been chewing it. I'd pay it, for a really good one, though I'm sure you could do better if you were able to wait.
