My tank doesn’t have any leaks, it’s just very rusty inside.
Also it’s not for my Hondas, it’s my RD350LC (sorry I know this is a Honda site).
The tanks are so rare so I really have to try something or get one of the Indian copies that aren’t a very good fit apparently.

I’ve only ever heard bad things about lining a rusty tank but I have one that is pretty bad inside.
Someone has already had a go at my tank, it’s gone like crisps inside. I’ve got every last bit of it out but it needs something to protect it.

I’m about to put in a CB650 cam in my 550, supposed to be a nice performance upgrade.

Rebuild the top end on my 1980 650 just before Christmas and it’s running perfectly with no leaks.
Should I re-torque the cylinder head bolts after a few miles or is there no need?

Should not leak no matter how long it’s left.

Two of the bikes are not that significant .. will just colour scan the titles and use them to register. The third is my 3/71 500K0 so will go to HOC for dating cert on that one. Find VJMC expensive as non member and very picky.
DVLA will not accept scans, photocopies of anything.

DVLA still want a dating certificate. If you send the original title you won’t get it back.

My 1980 650 is an absolute bitch to start when cold but once warmed up is perfect.
I found a way to get it to start first time every time no matter how cold it was and it sits there and idles perfectly.
Choke on full, kill switch off. Throttle open fully, turn over engine a couple of times. Close throttle, kill switch on, press start button and it fires first time and idles perfectly.
Don’t know if this is the proper way to start it but works for me.

Anyone know if there are any performance differences on the Honda Police bikes?
Reason I ask is I’ve just picked up a spare engine for my 650, the engine number starts RG01 instead of the usual RC03. A bit of searching on the internet shows it’s a Police engine.
Wondering why Honda would use a different engine code if the Police engines were the same as the standard ones. The engine looks identical to my standard one.

How about this for foam, I bought one this morning. The middle of it is black and looks very similar to what you’re after.
