    2nd Gen SV Tank

    Looking for a 2nd Gen tank. Preferably without huge dents. Mine is still usable, but suddenly very ugly.

    Check out Ebay... the Gen 2 tanks are much easier to find and cheaper than gen 1 tanks. Trust me know lol

    No shit? It got a big but fairly "clean" dent. No leaks.

    Can you PM contact info? I have a couple of spares that I'd be interested in someone taking a look to see if they can be repaired.

    Ugly bikes never end up on the ground. Shiny pretty bikes do. Just sayin.....

    I'd run it.

    +1. As long as it doesn't leak, who cares. Save your money for something you really need....tires.

    Wish my experience matched this.

    I'd buy a tank if I could as a spare anyway. The way I ride, I feel I'm on borrowed time.

    Re: 2nd Gen SV Tank

    I have a 2nd Gen tank with a huge dent. Holds fuel just fine but I swapped it out for something pretty. It should be easy to push the dent out but I've been too lazy to try.

    Right now it's just taking up space.

    Still looking for a tank. Just got off the phone with Justin, I showed him some pictures and he recommended I look for a new tank. The dents are pretty big.

    Re: 2nd Gen SV Tank

    You got a picture?
    Is it functional?
    Not looking, just curious.

    It is not obviously leaking at the moment, and it is almost 100% full.

    Re: 2nd Gen SV Tank

    Looks like you've got yourself a spare, though I'd just keep beating on it until it is no longer functional.

    Re: 2nd Gen SV Tank

    I'm certainly not going to sit out the Classic on account of this tank, but I do worry a bit about what will happen if I go down right on the "point" that has formed between the two dents. So I'd like to replace it or fix it.
