I’m looking for a Fuel Tank for my 83’ Honda CB1000 custom. Any help greatly appreciated!
Twas sitting in a shed for 38 years!

How bad is the existing tank, might be savable with a lining if the paint is still good?

Well, the outside of the tank looks beautiful but I took the tank off and can hear chunky stuff sloshing around with 40 year old gas. I don’t have a key to open the cap so I’m going to take it to a locksmith to open. Then I will see what’s doin in there but I’m guessing it’s pretty bad.

Send it to http://gastanklining.com/ and they'll be able to clean and seal it without wrecking the paint.

I'd bet you a fair amount of money that you can open that with a flathead screwdriver

Those old tank locks are so bad they can be DIY picked with a $10 lockpicking set.
