Title: Petrol Tank Post by: retro900 on May 29, 2011, 01:52:45 PM Just bought a bike (zrx1100) want to fit a carbon fibre petrol tank (aftermarket). Is it legal for the UK, looking on the manufacturers website (german) it looks like it could be TUV approved.

Title: Re: Petrol Tank Post by: Manky Monkey on May 29, 2011, 07:03:58 PM Carbon fibre? You seriously think I'd know anything about anything that modern.
Rust is lighter than carbon fibre. :D Title: Re: Petrol Tank Post by: retro900 on May 29, 2011, 08:02:22 PM Hmmmmm, there's really no answer to that ;)
Title: Re: Petrol Tank Post by: Archie on June 03, 2011, 10:27:32 AM Can't imagine that it's not. Plenty of featured streetfighters and sport bikes have them.
As long as your insurance covers it can't see an issue. Title: Re: Petrol Tank Post by: retro900 on June 03, 2011, 07:57:01 PM I'm thinking of aftermarket, not as standard fitment, wondered if was similar to fibreglass, they got banned in the early 70's i think.
