As One Pile Empties Another Starts To Grow Pt II


Won this on The Bay Of Fools the other day. Although not advertised as NOS it is hard to believe that it has either been on a bike or had oil in it. In the hand for 50 quid it shows that there are still bargains to be had in the over subscribed world that is the Bay.


There's a bit of a thing 'round here for stock oil tanks;
  • They fit
  • They hold the right amount of oil for the job
  • They have all the right fittings and a mesh filter
  • The hole in the return is sized right to divert the supply to the top end
Good enough for Big Ted Turner so why think ya know better!


The date stamp tells the tale of the tape........nice!
