The tank may of been a 1 off, the external oil feed was my work, after knocking out 3 camshafts in 7000 miles, the feed is taken from the oil gallery that splits the pressure between the top & bottom end, banjo bolt with a flow adjuster, that splits into 2 then 4 pipes, drill and tap into rocker cover, brazed copper pipe then feeds oil directly onto the 4 upper cam carriers, never had a cam go since, its also got an American performance parts big bore kit on it, likes being the other side of the red line

Hi nosey Julie, no I'm not the chroming man behind Groombridge's, I'm a sandblaster, any idea where my petrol tank comes from... have you ever heard of a Honda 750 F1 Sabre, just spotted it scribed into the underneath of the tank!

I will get a new battery and fire it up, it always starts even when left over a year, time to strip it and get riding again, anyone know where I can get the wheels respoked and rims chromed...

Hi, I have just joined the club, I have an aluminium petrol tank made for a Honda CB 750, I bought it about 20 years ago second hand, it looks different to the Seeley & Britain tanks, can anybody tell me anything about it? I have added a picture today 27/01/15 Bare aluminium F1 Café racer.
