Gas Tank replacement GS 850

[Guest]

The gas tank on my project has severe - impossible to repair without cutting and welding - dents.

What fuel tanks will fit to replace it?

Do I have to find an 850 tank or will a 750 or other models also fit?

Thanks

That depends on what year and model 850 you have.

GS850 G or L?

Sorry. It's a G.

I have a 1980 850G tank in gray primer, very decent shape if you can wait a few weeks.

I can wait. Bike won't be on the road this year. It was trashed by the PO and is coming apart piece by piece.

How much are you asking for this tank?

I have a US Kinek address.

So no one knows?

I posted this on a thread earlier, but here it is again.
'80-81 850G-1000G-1100G use the same tank.
The '77-79 750 tank also fits though it has a lower profile and less capacity.
'77 750E tank on an '80 850G

I think I just found a long range tank for my '77 750.... the 850 tank hanging on the wall.

Whoops, tell the other guy that there is a red 850 tank on eBay then.

Thanks for the info
