Started off bidding on both the tank and rt. turn signal lens [even tho i at one time thought someone here on the board was sending me one]. Things really got out of hand. Lens finally brought $32.51!

Wondering anyway, how to check level, cause opening cap is not so "vise" to do for that ???

...some "sign glass" can be better???

Is this tank available for sale? Seems pretty stout and all and the best thing about it is that it would outlast the bike itself.

Hell, I never check my coolant level now so I'm guessing an aluminum tank woldn't make any difference. Hmmmm, I think I better pull off the fairing and check my coolant level tonight, ya think?? :laugh:
