Not sure about that

Carbon all the 'hard work' is in making the mould

oversize for endurance, dual filler, sealing face to frame for open carbs etc etc.
I second this I would definitely be up for one of this was the case. Having a std tank modded for twin fillers just now but carbon oversized would be far better

Was quoted around £700 for one last year, and that was oversize with twin fillers but plus the cost of the filler caps.
