In reply to Jeff.

Jeff,

Wish I had a good answer for you. Unfortunatly, I have spent numerous hours looking at pics of what I think it might be with no luck. I think it is a 70’s era Yamaha tank, but I’m not sure. The tank has been modified a few times over the years, but the shape is very unique to whatever the hell it is.

The good news is, I am considering letting it go. Want to make something different for the bike. If you’re interested let me know. It’s a good tank, new liner, uses a HD bayonet style cap and a 22mm petcock. needs body work but it’s solid.

Jeff,
Unfortunately, I really don’t have a good answer. I’ve spent hours looking at pics of what I think it might possibly be from with no luck. The tank has been modified a few times over the years but the shape is really unique to whatever the hell it is.

The better answer I do have is, I’m considering letting it go. I kind of want to make something else for the bike. If you’re interested, let me know. It needs a bit of work still but it’s a good tank. Got a good liner, uses a bayonet style cap and a 22mm petcock.

Dude.. sick. I love the choppers with street bike accents. I always wanted to put a street bike engine into a chopper frame, maybe I’ll get it one day. Has there been any more progress?

I can dig it. If the rear wheel was the same color as the front, that would be sweet looking with that black frame and tank.
