I heard back from Mr. T and he has the 17 Airbox Covers. They can be bought and delivered for around $90. I'll post a picture once I buy them after my DLX arrives. Scheduled for arrival this week!

+1 on this.

Unrelated questions: which Ohnlins are those on the back and why aren't the piggybacks on the top? I've never seen them upside down like that.

Is that the one with the chrome strip?

Yes. That's the plan anyway.

I love the 2017 tank. And I get an extra half liter of gas to boot.

Wait.. !! The 2017 tank fits on the 2014..??!!. Crap, that looks good. You mind me asking how much that cost you ? Did it fit spot on ?? I love the look of the flush gas lid.

Not sure about the exact Ohlins model. I think it may be a model that fits a Kawasaki. They are upside down because the grab rails interfered with the shock. There is an Ohlins model that can be installed right side up but apparently the guy I ordered these through didn't realize it. Ohlins confirmed these work correctly upside down because they are under gas pressure. Not thrilled about having to install them upside down but they ride great. Yes the tank fits just like the original. The only difference is the 2017 tank has an overflow drain hose that needs to be added.

I think the tank was 1000 yen from Samurider.

Thanks for the reply on the Ohlins. Didn't see this addressed elsewhere, but which fairing is that? Is that the Chic Design from Samurider? I promise..no more questions.

Yes that's the fairing.

That sure does not look like a Chic Design. Looks like WM http://www.samurider.com/?p=13212/#itemImage

I'm curious if that would interfere with your lower bars. But... I thought you were getting rid of your bike??
