I will post some photos when I know how to do it.It may be easy for some but I don't really understand computers in fact its took me weeks to learn what I am doing now.I reckon I need a 5 or 6 year old to teach me.Although I can send e mail pics by iPhone or pc,i'm just a bit slow that's all.

tried to do a lap of the m25 yesterday on a full tank,got about three quarters round before light started flashing.Does any body know if the later 19 litre tank will fit a 98 model.I have been told that a vfr 800 tank with 21 litre will fit with minimum mods.Is this right?
