    Re: what gas tanks fit

    I'm pretty sure the 750E tanks for 1980-1981 are the same mount spacing.
    The tank youre looking for is the long one with the recessed knee spaces on the rear sides of the tank .....about 4.7 gallons, square locking gas cap....right?

      Hey Earl,
      The E models have a different tank and are not compatible with the L models. L model tanks are smaller.

          Suz, I just checked my parts pile and I have what I believe to be an 81 750L tank with the round chrome gas cap. If you will measure the distance from the distance from your front frame mount stubs to the rear hold down bolt hole, I will check those dimensions against what I have. If it is the same, you can have it for the cost of shipping it to you. (I know the petcock on it is crap though, so if your original petcock is IK, then you'll be in good shape. :-)
