If you have a 2014 standard and want to make a dramatic change, or your existing tank has a ding that's hard to live with, take a look at this tank on page 1 of Takashi's CB1100 accessories page:
It's 950,000 yen (around a grand) and a "mint condition" (used?) tank.
I for one really like it.
Anyone else like it?
Of course I like it!....for $250. I hate it for $1000 : )
I would like it better if the colors were reversed.

I think it's stunning, but it's almost 20% of the value of the bike. That's a bit rich for me.
Certainly for Farkle Fanatics only.
I'm a very responsible spender. With one and only one exception. Motorcycles!
I spent $20,000 in farkles on my CB100 and that's a conservative estimate.
Nice, but I'm so taken with the stock red, I can't imagine swapping it out even if it was cheap!

And worth every penny!
Thats not really a bad price though. List price for a stock tank is $1100 though you can get one on-line for ~800 or a little less.
So I guess that is pretty much list price for a tank with a custom paint job.

Gyaaaad, although I must say every iteration of your bike was beautiful CB4ME.
I spent about $ 700 on farkles for mine most of which was the luggage rack from Germany, the headlight bucket and chrome inst cups from Japan and the Kawasaki fork gaiters... Other than that ... hand grips, 83 degree valve stems, battery tender jr pigtail and RLETs. For me the bike was nearly perfect the way Honda brought it out. The headlight bucket and chrome inst cups were an extravagant purchase for me, about half the farkling budget, and totally unnecessary. They just look good lol.
Although I can appreciate extreme farkling, personally I'd rather spend my money on gasoline, tires, oil & filters, brake pads, meals on the road and motel rooms

Can also try painting your own tank!
