lots of cheap tanks around but damn few that fit a Roadie without modification.
The backbone/motor mount and ignition play hell with mounting a tank. I'd look on Ebay but be ready to do a lot of work on it if you want it to fit your bike.

You can check ebay, craigslist or Crashed Toys.

You can also use CraigLook as a lookup tool.

There are a few *junk* dealers like crashed toys who take damaged or repossessed bikes and break them up for parts.

Jade I am definitely interested that would be great. That would be perfect for me to find out how I like the look of the paint. I dont have a pay pal account so do you have any suggestions on how to pay you?

Give a PM to either Greyphart or Silverfox, I know Greyphart was looking for one and I think Silverfox said he had 2. Try them first.
