Jacked up

[JoshuaA.Conner at VerizonWireless.com (JoshuaA.Conner@VerizonWireless.com)]

Where do you live Justin?  I live in Columbus Ohio and I have a practically
brand new tank for sale.  It was obtained via the factory recall on my now
R.I.P 16V.  I am not sure what the going rate for a near new tank is.

My fueltank cracked this way this weekend :(  Now I'm scrounging to
find a new/used tank whilst getting used to biking around.
