Tank swapping help needed

I dont know if theres a forum for body mods, so I hope this is the right place.

Can anyone tell me whether a tank from a '93 - '95 ZXR750 will go onto my '89 and still look alright? I dont care if there some minor mods required to secure it, I just dont want it to look shithouse where it sits on the frame rails. Anyone know if theres any significant difference in length or width?

ALso, my vacuum hoses on the tank - if I change to a later model tank, will it make much difference to performance? Those things dont do much anyway do they?

Cheers

James

Have you tried just sitting a tank in place?

Didnt someone post a parts list in another one of your threads?

You might be able to cross reference the numbers, between the H and slightly later models, to see if they're identical?

...just an idea....
