    Hi, new to this forum. I’ve just started a cafe racer build on a 1995 trophy 900. All stripped down and starting to plan the rebuild.
    Does anyone have any info on fuel tanks suitable for the trophy frame (other than the CRK option). Struggling to find anything that will fit the large top tube. Any and all ideas appreciated.

    Hi and welcome.

    The Thunderbird tank SHOULD (I think) fit and look more like a traditional cafe racer style.

    Thanks for the help. I’ll look into that. It definitely has a better shape/look than the trophy.
