        Woah, hold up... lets clarify on that.

        The tanks will mount exactly the same pre or post, 600 or 750. There are minor differences in the fuel level sensor mount, and the shape of the front of the tank.

        If you have a fighter... you have no issue with any of the tanks, they will work. If you want to keep the main fairings to match the tank, stick with the years for the fairings your using with the tank.

        The bottom shape, mounting hook, and bolt mount holes are exactly the same though and will mount right up pre or post, to a 600 or 750 frame.
