I am looking too... There is a company here in the UK that make the narrower tank from  aluminium . It's a proper trick piece but it's £500 and it would stress me out getting it damaged. If your interested check out GMX radiators

yeah, I'm pretty sure that pic of the K5 they used on their site belongs to our member husky333...or at least was his bike...

I bought my carbon fiber silencer from him last year...great guy to do business with. I'm not sure if he owns GMX or not.

that gmx alloy is actully a bit better looking! but since you have to paint it yourself i think it migth get a bit difficult to get it to match the plastics,(unless you go black)
