gilimoto 22lt tank from Brazil
Guys has anyone in UK ordered one of these? Just wondering what postage cost, what was delivery time and what did you get charged by customs. They are so cheap, �215! It's an absolute bargain but don't know if it will still be a bargain once it has arrived and I've paid all the extras.
If anyone else has one around the world let me know what you think. Cheers |

Hi mate,
Yep have one and love it, gives me the range I need and is nice on the bike. Giovana is great to deal with and no problems. There are some pics on here somewhere in the 660r section, cheers. Shane. |

Hi Shane, are the tanks fiberglass or plastic? Does the fuel seat out of them? I hear some plastic tanks can sweat hence why they cant be painted. I ask as my bike lives in my hallway so the smell of petrol may be one step to far for the wife :-)
Cheers |

The tanks are plastic which is thick and well made, they seem to have a coating on them but not sure about painting them. I will soon have some stick on decals on mine so will see how that goes. The standard petrol cap will vent alot of fumes so go for a lockable one which is alot better, almost like standard. The only time i've noticed fumes from mine is on very very warm to ken hot days (so like a heat wave over there haha). Hope this helps and sorry for late reply, been out riding (have big tank, will travel) |

The Gillimoto is a good tank...
but mine did not fit right... the tunnel in the tank was to wide & wouldn't engauge on both rubber spiggets completely.. I had to turn up 2 alloy estenders 10mm long... Haven't heard of others haveing a prob so maybe I was getting a bit fussy... By petenz at 2012-06-21
