Do all '05 - '07 Speed Triples have plastic fuel tanks?
Thanks

I think all of the '05 and '06s have them and some of the '07s. If I recall correctly, they changed to metal during '07 production.

Nope. It wasn;t until 08 that they went metal...

mnhoulden has wrong info. From VIN 305060 upwards bikes have metal tank and should also have the updated v2 Keihin ECU. That is mid 07 model year somewhere, if I remember right. In any case, pre 08 bikes with steel tank definitely do exist.

Sorry for the misleading notes. I bought my 07 in Dec and figured it was/is a late 07. I know the SAI (i think that's what it is) is near the front of the engine unlike the early 07's near the foot peg.
