Where are you? I'll make awild guess that Aberystwyth is in Wales! Which R100? GS?
I'm in the UK, near Reading, and have a STEEL Heinrich 40 litre tank available, but first I need a 35 litre Heinrich to replace it! That's for an R80G/S, should be the same for R80GS/R100GS
Any 35 litre Heinrich tanks wandering around homeless?

Hi, its actually for a R100RT but the fairing has been junked and quite a few other mods have been done also, How much will you be asking for it? I am in Wales but I can arrange for a courier to pick it up no problem. E-mail me at
srm1@srm-engineering.com regards Chris.

Hi Chris,
Don't know yet, haven't researched it, and the replacement cost will have an effect  but figure a fair price, and that will be about right!
First I need to find it's replacement! If you find the smaller 35l version let me know. I'd also be interested in having a look at an Acerbis plastic tank, but don't know if the conversion from my present setup is more work than it's worth. I think the Acerbis is ugly, but I guess you can't have everything, and my bike is more a case of form following function anyway.
If anyone has an Arcerbis on their bike they wouldn't mind coming by with for test purposes, let me know - the barbie might be on if the weather is right.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
