hey guys, im 19. I'm actually picking up my bike either tomorrow or the next day... its a 2003 CBR 1000... its my first bike, but all my friends have them, so i always ride theirs. They have R6's, ninja 636's, R1's and busa's... so im the first to get a CBR, yay!! anyways, the only problem with the bike, is the gas tank is dented in... the kid that had it before me rolled it.. the plastics are basically fine, no major scratches, the frame sliders took most of the abuse, but i was just wondering if anyone knows off the top of their head how much a tank is for the 03's??

Wow a 1000 for a first bike, at least you've ridden your buddies already, good luck with it and be safe. Hopefully you'll have it in a couple days and I'll have mine in a couple days too! Welcome to the board! Sorry, dont know pricing on the tanks tho....

Hello & Welcome!!

Did the kid stunt it? How could the plastics be okay and only the tank dented? Hmmm...
