Author Message   S1eric Posted on Tuesday, January 04, 2005 - 10:23 pm:        Been looking around for a 5 gal Manta Tank in billet silver. Doesn`t have to be perfect, But looking for a good one. Thanks S1Eric   Steve_mackay Posted on Tuesday, January 04, 2005 - 10:58 pm:        Keep you eye on ebay. I just bought a yellow, or maybe it was orange one off ebay for $36   S1eric Posted on Tuesday, January 04, 2005 - 11:07 pm:        Thanks Steve, Been doing that for a while. I just don`t see to many in silver. Trying to keep from painting. S1Eric   Spinzealot Posted on Wednesday, January 05, 2005 - 06:38 pm:        I'm lookin' for one in blue myself. It seems this type of item runs in spurts on ebay.   Sleez Posted on Wednesday, January 05, 2005 - 06:45 pm:        i have been hunting a molten orange one for weeks now, found plenty for the FI bikes! steve got the one i was looking at, but i went out of town and wasn't able to check ebay, my loss!! be careful on ebay, most are bubbled decals that are take-offs from when the factory replaced tanks awhile ago!   Steve_mackay Posted on Wednesday, January 05, 2005 - 06:48 pm:        You snooze you lose! Seriously though. I don't care about the color. If you find another tank, or have another manta 5 gal tank in similar condition, I'd be happy to trade even up.   Sleez Posted on Wednesday, January 05, 2005 - 07:10 pm:        steve: i'll give you 50.00 for the one you bought, i'll pay shipping to me, i'll GIVE you my scraped up one and i'll pay shipping to you??? ...didn't think so! oh well, if i get one at a reasonable price i'll ping you. it is molten orange right? if i remember, it was in pretty good used shape?? S1Eric: there was just a beautiful silver one on ebay, i think it was for an FI bike and was new in the box. if i remember right he was asking 355.00??? good luck! later S.LeeZ.

But when I do I'll make sure it's orange and tell ya the condition. It's not going anywhere anytime soon. I just wanted some extra parts. And that tank came cheap We now have 2 complete sets of S3 bodywork. we're gonna at some point play around with a different paint scheme. But not anytime soon with the one I just bought.   S1eric Posted on Wednesday, January 05, 2005 - 11:17 pm:        Thanks S.leeZ. I`ll keep looking. I have a black one I would be willing to trade. Looks to nice to strip and paint, but it looks like thats what i`m gonna do. Maybe i`ll wait a few weeks to see what turns up. This is just another S1 i picked up. Couldn`t pass on it, I got it for 3K and it only has 9k on the odo. But i hate the small tank ! S1Eric
