    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I saw this website, http://www.stinky.jp/parts.php , and I love the type 5 tank and the type 4b seat. First off, will these work on a GS550. Second, is there some place to buy these. And finally, is there any other place that has a similar style of tank and seat that would work for me. Thanks

The pipes on that bike are SICK! love em! Too little for me...lol.

On the subject...The Tank Shop in Scottland does tanks like that. They are MUAY MUAY expensive. I priced a "Manx" style tank and after conversion and shipping it worked out to like 1600USD. Yeah. No thanks...
Also, the guy has some customers that are none to happy with him, as his turn around time is sometimes MONTHS and MONTHS, and he expects, from what I gathered, FULL payment to begin construction. Nice tanks, but I will pass on that. I dont want one that bad. As for the seats, you can get the fibreglass shells from here

Wow. That is pure porn and I am not even much of a cafe lover. That site has the most amazing gallery I have ever seen, between the bikes and the photography I have wallpaper for months or years.

And to try to actually answer the question, Those tanks are generally built for a single backbone tube. The GS has three tubes and there standard tanks may not settle over the frame.This does not mean the underside of the tank can not be refitted for your frame, check with them.
The seat should go on with little fuss.

And I need a set of those curved megaphones, those are just right.:)
