Steve,
Someone should go for that rim swap...(hehe..rim swap..that sounds
dirty)...err...anyway...those Yamaha rims are nice looking pieces, a
WM3 for a WM2 is a good trade.
I'll take a look for that tank tonight...if I have it, it's yours for
shipping costs. I'll do my part for the project...they weigh a ton
though....about 11 pounds I think...a four pound glass tank would be
the tits.
