Hi,you mean the Z1RII D2. This was the only Z1R that was sold in maroon and there are only 300 sold of this.
My Z1RII is a 1980 D3 and came as a new bike from California to Germany.
Yes we have 3 tank sizes. 13 liters stock, 18 liters option, and the big one 22 liters.
They are hard to find, because the japanese are hot to get this tanks.
I think you have to pay approxx 400-500$ incl shipping.I found one for a engish guy,if he don't want the tank, you can get him.Here is a pic of a Z1000S with 22 liter tank.

Hey Leon,
It's not "chunky", man...it's 'husky'...or no, it's just 'thick'...that's all.
Skinny kids...you're all so mean!

Yes, by all means, keep me in the loop (I'm sure you'll allow your guy fair opportunity). That's a fair chunk of cash, but I'll figure something out. And if he takes it, keep me in mind if you run across another.
