Topic: Cb650c 1981 gas tank compatible

Hi, please I need help to know what gas tank is compatible for my Cb650c 1981.

Only took a little modification at both ends.

Nice, I like your tank, so what i should to buy 750k 71, what are you used in your project?

Sorry, I must apologize, I was joking.  That tank ('78 cb750k) is too narrow and has the wrong style rear mount.  I had to change the frame mounts to make it work.  I don't want you to buy one of those tanks and be mad at me for saying it would fit.  For ease of mounting I can only say any model cb650 tank of the same or earlier year should work.  I was trying to get an older "look" on my project.

The only tank directly compatible with an '81 CB650C is a tank for an '81 CB650C. I'm convinced that the SOHC4 CB650s are the least represented and least supported in the entire family of these bikes. The worst part is that with time, they're either going to all be gone or people will be forced to bake up homemade & modified parts as replacements.
