OTR fuel tank now �1000

Hi,

The OTR larger fuel tank for the XTR has gone up by �90 and is now �989 -- without paint!

http://www.off-the-road.de/xt660.html?&L=1

I don't think anything I bought for my trip to Morocco managed to be on sale despite the credit crunch and now the aftermarket tank has gone up!

Someone's seen me coming!

Cheers,

Ian

Hello Ian,

We have a cheaper tank here in Brazil, look at this website: http://www.gilimoto.com.br/detalhes....25&produto=179

The company is trying to sell from Europe and USA, but I don't know if they have sucess.

I just send an e-mail to find more information OK?

That OTR tank has always been highly priced, i wonder how many they sell in a year??

Robson that tank looks good, how much is that in Euros/Pounds, as im sure some people could organise it to be shipped over to Europe/UK cheaper then buy the OTR tank

Friends,

I'm in contact with Gilimoto here OK?

The owner Giovana told me that the principal problem is the cost to delivery in Europe, that make the people desist of the negotiation.

Then, I say from her to give me all the costs to send one from Europe.

The price of the tank, the taxes (if exist), the price of transport, and any other cost to send from you.

As she send me, I'll come back to talk with you.

The tank for us is expensive (R$ 550,00 or 203 euros), but for you is very cheaper for you.

We'll talk again OK?

Robson,

That would be brilliant if you can get all that information.

I saw in the other thread that hono was having some trouble with gillimoto, possibly because there's some difficulty with paying outside of Brazil. That will be our next problem.

Cheers,

Ian

Hi Robson,

there are some german fellows that are interested as well, so we are here in Peru.

Any further information is highly appreciated!

Saludos,
Joe

Hi Ian,
I don't know what's the problem to pay, I've been work in another company and we always receive payments for another countries.
I talk to her tomorrow, and I fell that she's a little bit afraid to send the tanks and don't receive the money, etc. (The Brazilian reality).
I say that she will receive first the deposit, the she'll send the tank, etc.

Now we're studying one form.

I can't send by myself, because the Correios (company that can transport the tank) needs that only companies send things.

But, I'll try another way...
