Yes, I couldnt bring myself to do that, did a trade with tlnut and he made use of the original tank.
It ended up here...

Got the bobbins from a really helpful guy on Ebay, user name Crashbobbins, he didn't have any at the time but I asked for them in white and he posted both sets out for about £48, great guy to deal with

Just a quick suggestion / warning, the guy who had my bike before me had crash bobbins on the bike and when he fell it actually broke the crash bobbin mounting point on the block (I'm going to try and grind it and make it look neat again ... dont want to weld on the block). I have read up on the internet about crash bobbins and there seems to be two schools of thought... 1) it protects your fairing etc but 2) it can cause the bike to hook when its sliding and start fliping (the counter argument here is that it slides on the fairings and save everything else. Either way I think they look nice... pity about my block though

- I was thinking that is may make sense to have a shaft that runs straight across the front of the block so that they one crash bobbin mounting point supports the other one (reduces the twist effect on the one) and hopefully the block will survive
