    Yeah, but the chances of me ever getting one of those is next to zero Nate So at least the small upgrade to a Standard is better then a kick in the toes.

      Unless it's the larger Venturer tank at 6.3gal., which if real close to empty I can stuff 6.5gal. in it(if I plan on immediatly riding, otherwise some expansion or on the sidestand it will run some out the overflow hose under the bike and on the ground).

                  Why does the XJR have those spindly forks? Why didn't they go with the good stuff they have on the shelf?
