Default I got my new tank today...

UPDATED PHOTOS OF THE NEW TANK ON MY 48 ON PAGE 4...

I picked up my newly painted spare tank today. I think it came up pretty well as I wanted it to be nice and subtle but at the same time something different.

Unfortunately it is a bit overcast here today so you cant see how good the paint really is.

Let us know what you think...

I think it's awesome. Don't be pissed if my tank looks exactly the same one day

Thanks for all the good comments. I am trying to work out what fuel cap to go with now... I am running with the flush mount black HD one on my black tank but I don't think that will look any good on the red. What do you think? Any advice would be much appreciated!

Black flush mount would look stellar on this tank. Is not the design on the tank black? Using chrome would steal the focus away from the custom job. My opinion of course.

Yep, the airbrushing is black. I head home tomorrow so I will put the black cap on and have a look. I checked it out with the OEM chrome cap and it looked prerty average...
