Hang on a minute!
So the tanks wrong and you need to get the right one?
I am with you so far.
Can you identify the tank?
Why would you want the wrong tank identified?
Surely its the bike you need identified?

So that it can be sold for what it is?

scoot already knows what the bike is -  it's a B50SS.

I know what the bike is as you all know, but I will want to sell the tank that is on it, and to do that I need to know what it is, so I can help with the buying of the correct tank, which looks like being expensive ! unless anybody wants to swap the tank that is on it for a B50ss tank. (which I doubt) but you never know, any takers ? Thanks for the info L.A.B
