I need help identifying parts...

If you guys could help me identify http://pinkpossum.com/TR750replicas/ima ... rt2008.jpg that tank

These pipes & seat. Perhaps even the tank on this as well...

I would be a very happy camper. Thank you =]

The Paul Smart bike is a genuine XR11 (TR750).

Ron Moolenar's bike has a tank on it that I think he had since the seventies, and the seat is a TR750 replica.

TR rep seats are quite common, but the tank is an issue because of the filler neck in the backbone.
John Woodley in NZ used to manufacture TR replicas and he probably could make the tank. Ron Tingate of Konig replica fame can make tanks out of aluminum. He's a metal wizard.

I have seen an aluminum TZ250 tank modified to make a TR replica.

In North America Dennis Curtis of CMR is a possibilkity for a custom tank and so is Randy Illg at Framecrafters.net in Illinois.

TR spec motor and dry clutch or modified GT motor and wet clutch?

What inlet rubber are you using to mount the carbs?

Thanks Ron,

They look like Kawasaki GPZ750 9nlets, but I tried those and they are not quite right. My 34mm carbs hit thr clutch cover so I need to find a set soon.
