    1980 GS1000ST tank

    I am doing up a 1980 GS1000ST (Aus) and currently its fitted with a GSX1100 tank and the S tank I have is beyond repair.
    I have had no luck in Aus finding an S tank and as the S is not too popular in the UK and US I woul liek to know what tank I can fit to make the bike look almost original.
    Will a GS450-850 tank fit? I know and L tank is out but will a G tank fit?
    I can fill in the side badge mounting plate i just need the correct shape.

    Thanks

    An 'E' tank will be fine other than the tap is exactly the same shape.

    Don't say can't, as anything is possible with time and effort, but, if you don't have time things get tougher and require more effort.

      I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

        the GS1000s tank I have is heavily dented (beyond repair) its off a bike that was used as a dirt bike and it was stacked into a tree and did alot of damage to the whole bike, luckily thats was a spare bike i only bought for parts
        I will get pics in a few weeks when i'm back down with the bike, waiting on info from the UK as I maybe able to get a tank but will just have to pay a fair amount for it.

            If that doesn't work, drop me a PM. I may know a guy who has one. I'm not sure though, it's a long shot.
