The Airtech on is glass fibre, if you want alloy, Bartel in Northern Ireland, not sure on price as it is about 9 years since I bought one.

You may want to check with Greg from Ohio Cafe Racers, he may have one just about finished?  Per price??  I have been trying to get him to give it to me for one of my projects, but he may have other plans.  He stopped making tanks for a little while as life snuck up on him.  I will say his finished product is second to no-one, having seen plenty of tanks from the Tank Shop and having one made for my Guzzi from TAB II.

The Bartel aluminum CR750 petrol and oil tanks are available through Meadspeed in the UK at 440(GBP) each.  They sell other CR goodies as well.   
 
www.meadspeed.com/products/honda/cr750
 
CMR Racing Products (Denis Curtis) in Ontario Canada also make a nice aluminum CR petrol tank.

Here you go Joe, this is Asa Moyces address in Northern Ireland. He makes the tanks that most people are offering for sale on various sites. Going dierect could be cheaper.

Going direct is cheaper Sam - Mead speed used to be ~20% more than buying from Asa direct and it's the exact same tank!

As you're in Kent you could try to track down JP Tanks, that's John Pearson's old firm and they made all sort of top notch alloy tanks.

Ok well it's a 30 week wait for Bartells which could be a big delay on my project.
Would it be possible for someone to give me the exact dimensions of the tank so I could mock one up on the frame? Maybe even borrow one for half a day! Might be askin too much though
