What Tank is this?
« on: June 28, 2010, 01:56:40 PM »
I lost the chrome piece that goes on top of the tank. It was my own fault, it has been loose for the past two years and I never glued it back on. Always forgot about it till I would stop for gas. Now I finally lost it on the freeway and I am trying to track down another one to glue on. The bike is a 76 550k but I'm not sure what the tank is off of. I have been searching Ebay for one just so I can steal the chrome cover off of it but haven't found any.

Also if anyone has the chrome cover that they are willing to sell let me know.

Thanks,
Steve

It is a double petcock so I guess it is from an F. I have been digging through pictures and just can't find this tank.
