OK, I will give you the clip-ons, but long fuel tanks suck no-matter what. I had to shorten a pre-95 Honda RS125 fuel tank because of damage to the back of it and really liked being further forward on the RS. So ever since I don't like long tanks.

My triple clamp doesn't have the provision for bars anywayOriginally Posted by diesel pig
I had thought about stretching the std RD coffin tank but the one that came with the bike is a bit far gone.
i had posted an okay looking modified RD4.lc350 with ugly pipes before. My thoughts on ergo is the pegs should be inline with the end of the tank or slightly further back. so if i want rearsets i also need a longer tank.
in the std tanked rd like yellow it looks about 2 -4 inches short (say tit should end the middle of the side cover and the seats to my taste should have a longer rear cowl covering the seat hump.
TZ and RD had some styling clues i am following like the gap in the guard to mimic the stays the upright shocks spoked wheels, rake on the pipes the style of the Radiator sides, swan neck top triple clamp

HeliBars may have made replacement clipons which are flatter and more comfortable. I have raised clipons on the R1 which make a huge difference to comfort. They were made by someone in Ngaruawahia, can't remember the name.

Short seats look arse, the proportions are wrong, the early SS Ducati got it right and not much has since

Kind of surprised you would coment about aesthetics given how ugly that gn seat tank combo was
To me The SS seat is about 2 inches to long it throws off the symmetry of the rear guard, it does recreate the tank's lines nicely though.
Ducati had it right with the 350 racers that where the 900ss fairing came from. (although the 350 bike needs jacking up at the rear and the tank is a little out of kilter
prettiest seats are a tie between the supermono the 916 and the bimota db1 plaus th e xrtt

I had bruises on my thighs for days after riding your MBRS. Square edges are worse.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.

I don't mind it. The square corners give my outside knee something to hang on to when hanging off.
