I drain and flush my tanks twice yearly, and use a fuel stabilizer, so there is no rubbish to get through, plus i never shit in the tank meaning none of that blocks the pipes either. 
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I had 2 of them go on my carbs, little blighters. Trig sorted it but I think if you're doing it with the carbs on the bike, swarf getting in is the biggest problem. Just seen yours are off the bike, so forget that last comment

Inline filters still clog if they have s**t going through them from the tank. All you're doing is moving the problem further down the line 😭😭😭

Oooooooooooh, how exciting. Having been through it twice with two bikes very recently, I can remember the feeling well. Just wait till you fire her up, even more exciting

If it were me, I would definitely want to investigate further. But as you are taking the engine out of the frame anyway, you're half way there. Just don't ignore those bits, something alloy is not where Mr Honda intended it to be.

Thanks Julie, any idea on painters/paint code?
I think any painter should be able to sort that out for you. As far as paint codes are concerned, I haven't got a clue. I know it is Parakeet Yellow and having had a quick look on tinternet, Y31 / QE comes up a lot. You could always contact RS paints, they would know. If it is Y31 / QE, it is readily available in a spray can. If it were me with such a basic solid colour I would paint it myself. If you need the panel decals, Piki, (Redice) on the forum will sort you out with one. Edit.....just found this from RS paints which confirms the colour code. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Honda-Parakeet-Yellow-400ml-aerosol/dp/B00MMDTGH6

They don't repair very well at all, especially a huge crack like that. Buy a pattern one from LPM panels, they supply Silver with his but cheaper if you go direct. https://lpmreplicaparts.com/

If Menno got his act together and sent me an image file, he’d be in the forum sponsors section with Piki and Marcel.

Who is Menno?
Menno Dek. Painter in Germany who many of us use on a regular basis for doing paint work on our classic Hondas. The best painter in my opinion and I know many others have the same view of his work. http://www.tanklackieren.de

Welcome to the forum Jon. Ah, welded crank cases, we get a lot of them through here, work that is, so you are not alone. We'll done for getting this far and not giving up.

I made my seat so the seat actually pushes under the tank and takes up the entire gap of the tank profile as I don't like the look of firstly, a gap under the tank and secondly the finish of a seat with a poor fitting profile abutting the tank.

Hi. I have just made the seat for my CB550 Mongrel (see pic in gallery). I have got a CB500 tank fitted but the fittings are all the same. If no one comes up with the info you need, I can take photos of mine if it helps. Let's put it this way, there are some awkward shapes that have to be made at the underside, front of the seat pan / foam to accommodate the big rubber tank fixing etc.
