This isn't a new find but, kinda forgot about
So, that makes it a new find to me.
Needs a lot of love but, it's just sweaty enough.
Wonder how long it will be before I find the missing tank?
Anyone got one?

You can see in the one picture...someone took the tank off.

I was talking to an elderly gentleman about old bikes. He and his friends all had tank bikes. The cool kid took his tank off. Then all the other kids started taking their tanks off. He said it became cool to take the tanks off and ride with out them. Now it's cool to put them back on, but hard to find them.

The tank must have come off a long time ago, the patina matches up evenly where it was mounted.
