[QUOTE="Black Flash, post: 46326, member: 433"] I have bought a tank like this from a dealer in the Nethetrlands. he told me that a dutch section member had checked all his tanks and their fitting was great. Well it certainly wasn't cause the tank was to narrow at the end and the ears for the through bar and spacer at the end were not present. I opened up the rear to fit over the UFM hydraulically and made up the metal ears myself. I like the shape of the tank very much and the front ears needed a little bending no more. All together about 2 hours if fiddling. BUT i was building a Comet special and the obviously wrong angle of the fuel tap bosses did not matter to me. I am sure this is a very different story with a twin and rear carb / inspection cap / metal fuel line banjo arrangement. Bernd [/QUOTE]
