honda 550 tank: back from the dead

[hutch73]

i bought a parts bike the other day and tore into the tank last night. someone had spray painted over the original orange paint. luckely they didn't sand. with some goo-gone i was able to clean it up without damaging the orange. i can't explain how stoked i was!

Years ago I had a 69 CB450 with dual overhead cams it was a turd compared to my buddies bikes but man it looked and sounded great
