Plastic petrol tank
Posted: Mon Jul 11, 2022 6:18 amI have a cosmetically challenged but apparently sound plastic tank for sale. It has plenty of numbers moulded into it;
TUi 6590492
10501/92
ACERBIA
PA6
and what looks like an MZ part number 30-27.729
This is the tank that graced later Saxon models, I bought it to fit to a Silver Star (to overcome the chronically inadequate OEM tank capacity) never fitted it, sold the bike, the tank is just taking up useful space under my workbench.
It holds air; I tested it for a period of several days, it has no pet-cock, there's a cap and it seals - but isn't right for the tank, the threaded inserts are in good condition (pet-cocks aren't hard to find).
It's horrible to look at, hand painted 'scabby black'.
£35.00 will see it in a box on it's way to any UK mainland destination or it's available for pick up in South London.
I don't check this forum very often, please call on 07730822049 for any more info / photo's
