400/4 Tank
« on: July 11, 2014, 03:26:40 PM »
Hi all
Now that I have fully converted my bike to race trim, I am thinking of getting rid of some of the bits that I won't use again.
Can anyone tell me what petrol tanks go for these days, it's in pretty good condition and is the original one from the bike.
I also have things like front and rear mudguards and the grab handle.
Thanks
Ian

Thanks for those replies guys.
I will get some pictures up for others to inspect, but it will have to wait until I return from my holiday.
Thanks again.

Ok guys,
Here are some pic's of the tank I would like to sell.
It has no dents on it, but it does have a couple of small chips in the paint.
Any ideas on how much to ask for it?
Cheers

+1 If it doesn't sell it can always be re listed.

Thanks for the replies guys, that's certainly given me an idea of what I should be looking for.
Mickwinf, I'll have a look in my box of bits that I have left over for you and let you know.
Cheers

Mickwinf,
Sorry mate I had a good look in all my boxes, but I'm afraid the grab handle has gone.
