How many gallons are those tanks? I want something similar on my DOHC supersport. You know, the 900 is just two 450's bolted together. Makes the same power. So I'd like to put a black-bomber tank on a 900 at some point. You know what you need to do with those parts you've got there? Bemoaning the lack of a knock-off copy? MAKE THEM. I wonder if they could be cast in fibreglas, being that there's that fake chrome paint now that's so cheap. I've seen reproduction emblems lately, that's what they need to do with all of this stuff. And the knee pads, at the very least if you've got a good one you should do a mould of it using that denture stuff. I saw something once where this couple who were porn-stars did moulds of their junk with the stuff. I had such a laugh at the dude sitting there with his ass in a bowl of porridge trying to "think warm thoughts" so as not to get any "mould shrinkage" so to speak. But yeah, if you've got that good copy, then somebody can cast up something in rubber gum and then have them vulcanized. Or maybe there's a new material that's superior, with more "tack" to it, harder wearing, and looks nice and shiny black. Speaking of dildos. Ha ha. "Cyber-Skin"? And before you ask, no it's not THAT. My prude girlfriend worked at an adult store when we were in college. Best decision she ever made ... maybe not for her, but for me it was. Ha ha. Anyway, I would often have to hang out and keep the drunks from wandering in and molesting her. She actually toughened up a bit too. Definitely a "growth" opportunity. Nyuck-nyuck. So, while I was there, I would eat take-out food, read books, and look at all of their product. Oh, and watch through a peep-hole while she sold vibrators to other hot young girls. But anyway, there are a lot of cheap new rubberized plastics that have been set up for moulding in a cottage industry type fashion. THAT'S what I could have said the first time, but it was less fun. Ha ha.
Really though, I know that the "ping" of the metal part is a good thing, but who are you gonna allow to touch the bike when it's done anyway? Right? So fibreglas and faux chrome doesn't seem so bad now, does it? As for the feel of the dildo-rubber between your thighs....
Seriously, I know you don't wanna answer me NOW, but how much gas did those tanks hold?
-Sigh.
