850T fuel tank substitute?
« on: February 19, 2021, 08:25:32 PM »
Good evening all. I am in the process of tearing down my 1975 850T. The original tank has some dings and a bad repaint from previous owner and honestly, I never have warmed up to the shape of the T and T3 tanks. I’m wondering what other Tonti frame models of the time (like V7, LM)have tanks (or repro tanks for these models)that may fit my T. Many thanks! Paul

The V7 Sport/750S/S3, 850 Le Mans and CX100 tanks will fit the same as the original, but may require modifying the seat or fitting a different seat altogether. Later Le Mans tanks mount differently.
