Found a company doing Long Range Tanks for XR, DR and a few others - Aqualine in Australia - they normally make water tanks..... as you guessed.

They make an excelent product, with a good rep in Australia. They have lots of extra UV protection in the plastics to suit Aus. and from memory (I don't have one but a mate does on his DRZ) they have metal nuts instead of screwing the mounting bolts into the plastic of the tanks.
