I'm looking for a usable copy of the classic non-EFI fuel tank as fitted to pre-unit Bullets. I've only got a tiny trials tank on mine, and I think I'd like to go for a longer ride than 60miles one day. Bonus points for pretty pin-striping, but mainly I want it to hold fuel. I'm in Seattle. Please let me know what you'd need for your dusty old tank, the one you replaced with a new one because of the dent, or whatever.

Shouldn't be too hard to find one, stock Indian iron barrel Bullet gas tanks held/hold 14 liters or approximately 3.6 US gallons, this equates to 3 imperial gallons, which was a common tank size on UK bikes in the 50's.
