benelli riverside tank on a cb750?
« on: November 18, 2010, 10:31:38 AM »
Has anyone put a benelli riverside 60's tank on a cb750? I really like the look of it, This isn't the Mojave one that is really popular, but the boxier looking one. I have seen the underside, on web photos and it looks similar underneath in tunnel width and size. Just curious, I dont mind doing small mods but if it involves cutting the old cb tank floor and welding to the benelli tank then maybe I'll go with hammering in the knee dents myself on the cb tank. any one with info?

here are photos I found on the web of the tank. ( these are not my photos )




Cheers

Tunnel is very marrow at rear, you need wide... you can see how narrow on the tank that is on the ground
 Worse yet, I think they are too short..

Yeah you are most likely right. Although the one on the ground is a different tank. I think
