Might just be me or the lighting... looks like a few dents and a couple stretches. If not, I don’t think your gonna find too many more of those.

 

Interesting colours too - I never saw that before and I live in Europe (..sort of)

 

Here is another shot included on the listing. I believe the lighting does little justice to the quality of the tank.
I agree with you on finding a coveted tank such as this. I've never seen an NOS tank come up for sale for the 550 Seca.
Used ones in fair condition are few and far between also. I saw a fairly nice used black tank go for $240 a couple years ago. It was straight and clean inside but the decals had began to lift from spilled gas. The paint was badly sun faded and checked.

 

Check out the lisence plate on the van or lorry behind the bike.
Somewhere beautiful in Euro country.

 

Hmmm...a missing right sidecover. I wonder if he'd sell the left one?

 

I tracked down the link and that one has Zephyr 750 shocks on it with remote resevoir- interesting..

 

That nos tank has been for sale for a good while now. I’m surprised by that.

 

It's your responsibility and duty, as a member of this forum, to share rare finds like this with other members. Ask any of the moderators....

 

a100man, good eye on the shock swap. I didn't notice that.
They are adjustable/rebuildable KYB or Kayaba piggyback resivoir shocks that fetch a couple hundred for a used set on EBay.
That's the first generation of that shock which was improved upon later and used on Kawasaki ZRX models.

 

Hmm there's a pair of the early ones for sale near me at roughly 60 USD might go and take a closer look in that case
