Rothmans fuel tank
I was wondering if anybody would be able to send me in the right direction on sourcing a rothmans paint scheme petrol tank! Or even a plastic or carbon fibre cover for my original tank to match my rothmans paint scheme!
All help appreciated

Re: Rothmans fuel tank
Just use any NC30 tank and have painted correctly to match
there was no original Rothmans scheme, so it is unlikely you would ever find anything that even matched.

Re: Rothmans fuel tank
Did somebody say Rothmans?
No2 bike with a cheap and fairly average paint job on a set of Chinese fairings...

...and a couple of the No1 bike with OEM fairing set and complete top quality bespoke paint job....

On the later the blue comes further down the tank and IMHO lines up much better with the rest of the bikes paintwork, but then again it was a one off complete spray job and stung me for neigh on a grand about 5-6 years ago.
As has been said the Rothmans scheme a was never an OEM scheme so you will not find a tank already sprayed, but here is a good guide for your chosen sprayers....
