Something to look at.. started fabing the tank. i've calulated that it will hold about 10 litres.. will do for testing.

Underside will fit over the airbox nicely.

Wow, very Stealth-Fighterish!!!

Cheers Mr Canuck!

Shame it's going to be hidden with a CBR600RR tank cover. Will source some baffle foam blocks to stop the fuel sloshing about too.

Sometimes better to make something cheap and easy than sexy and expensive. Do you have the fuel pump on there as well, or something else planned?

Have you conducted a pressure/leak test yet?

Also feel like a nice anodize or at least an sliding bath is in order. :-)

Nope - filler neck and breather still need welding on.

Open to ideas on wjhat to do for a leak/pressure test? Anodising sounds like a good idea. Sliding bath? you been playing with rubber duckies and the soap again? :goofy:

Alodine... had to look that up. Guessing you use it on aircraft parts at work?

Gonna be very careful with pressure testing. i've heard of people balloning tanks with only 5 psi.

Strange..yawns and blinks.... it's 2015 erk! didn't see the thread bump... New years resolutions include getting this bike on the road for a UK summer! :cheerleader:

I've been tied up with renovating my old house over winter.. .warmer weather soon please!

Something to look at in the way of an update.. Honda RS250RW track fairing... i've added some mounting tabs and started the front subframe... Radiator is really too wide for the upper so now mounted veritcally with new hangers welded on.
