I'm new here and I have done some searches I have a 2001 750 and I'm going to start my converstion to 05 fairings I'm pretty good on the tail converstion found that thread and I know I can do that the upper fairing kinda not sure on that one I know I need the 05 stay braket and have to make it fit not to sure about my air ducts and mounting the speedo but my question is about the tank I want to put a 05 tank on it not sure that it will work I have seen some pics of my bike with 05 fairings and it looks like some pep change the tank but any info would be great thanks
Well I picked up a used tank in good shape last night so today I am going to see what is going to take to make it fit since nobody has any input on it I will keep up to date post on what I run into on the fit
There's pics of a red 05 tank swapped onto a 01-03 somewhere about 2 yrs back on these forums.(don't remember)
They did the fairings too. As for the tank it looked like ass, it left a hideous void in bottom back corner even if you fabbed up some plastic filler pieces like a 04-05 has.
Well the tank fits but as you said leaves some big gaps in the sides where u can see the throttle linkages I'm going to try to weld some thin sheet metal to feel gaps the bondo and sand I'll get some pics
Who was it that posted up the full conversion, IconGSXR? Something like that, they did a full fairing swap and it turned out looking pretty good. Although, I don't recall if they did the tank as well.
