First Generation Ascots > The Thumper Years: Modified To Full Customs
Identify this Gas Tank
Slyphon:
Can anybody help to identify the gas tank on this FT500? http://streetfocus.fr/rgk-honda-ft500/
I've been searching for a while, it looks like it might be a cb350 main difference I see is that the filler hole is center on the 350 and on the right in the above FT500.

I've seen a picture of that bike before. I don't know what tank that is. You might want to open a Facebook account, if you don't already have one, and send them a message requesting information on that Ascot: https://www.facebook.com/rivegauchekustoms
The early Yamaha TT500 or XT500 (can't recall now) has a real nice shaped tank. Fortunately the FT Ascot has a narrow frame channel under the tank, so there are many options out there. I saw a custom Ascot with a CB350 tank on it & that looked nice.
Good luck

Tough to tell. My first thought was around a 1972 Honda CB after they went to that more streamlined tank but the cap doesn't match up. I'm curious to know now. Let us know if you find out.
J6G1Z:
There are some "classic" styled tanks on page #19 of this PDF: http://www.emgo.com/images/pdf/2013_Classic.pdf
It doesn't list prices, but it does provide a Part # that you can search on eBay with.
