    Rolling the tank seam

    I relocated this thread.

    I was scouring the net and looking for ways to dress up my 1980 550. it is my hope to turn it into a cafe racer of the winter. I came across a youtube video where the guy rollin in the pinch weld on the tank, making it look much smoother. Is there a good reason why I shouldn't give this a try? Am I destined to crack the weld and ruin the tank or does it stand a chance?

    Here's my method for rolling the seam on Japanese motorcycle gas tanks


    It seems like a simple thing but in looking at bikes that have been cafe'd by serious garages you still see the pinch weld.
