  • XS1100 Standard Tank

    I have a standard tank without any hardware I need to sell. Anyone need one?

    What is it worth?

    The value of a tank depends on many different things. Please tell us the color and is it original paint or not. Is it or has it been dented? Is there rust (if so how badly), does it have any known pin holes or are there any that have been fixed that you can tell? Has it been lined previously and if so does it look like a competent job? Are the badge holders still there for the Yamaha badges or has that been covered over?
    So as you can see a little more info would go a long way in trying to get it sold for a fair price. The more info you give will hurry the process up and enable both seller and buyer to end up happier at the end of the transaction. Pictures will help more than anything else!
    As for price I can not tell you anything until I know more, but even then I would be a poor person to ask! I sometimes give away stuff if I feel the person is known to love his XS, swap parts with others for mutual benefit, and sell way too cheaply to others. As far as I recall I have never sold or traded an item on this forum for it's full worth or any profit.
    One last thing I would like to mention is the shipping, is it included in the price, how far will you send it, is UPS your only option, will you ship international (many do not like to fill in the very simple paperwork to do so)?
    I never meant to make such a long reply but I do think you need to put the info out there to get a deal done.

      Pictures added. It has been painted but was not taken care of after paint. It looks like it has not been used since painted. It does have a few scratches. See pictures. The inside looks clean. Is $100 plus shipping too much?

                  I still do not see the first set of pictures at my end. Dunno why. I do see the second set and that tank looks pretty sweet. I think you could have gone higher on your asking price and got it. I know I would have paid more than that if the tank is solid. Good luck on your sale.
