Indian fuel tank

Posted by geoff the bonnie <iframe src='https://members5.boardhost.com/classicbikemart/info/user=geoff+the+bonnie' width='330' height='300' border=0 style='border:none;'> on April 21, 2026, 8:10 am

Just ordered the large fuel tank for the BSA Spitfire at a cost of 177 pounds which is a very good price. I paid quite a bit more a few years back for the same type. These tans are generally very good and i order ones in primer so i can put the right colour on.
Free postage but i wonder if it will get a tax added by our Customs

Den I trust you are not batting for the other side. Do you now identify as Deb.

You are spot on there Jerry, we soon won't be able to make a wheelbarrow.

I have a date with a girl that identifies as a wheelie bin, I can't remember if I'm taking her out on Tuesday or Wednesday?

There are some Indian tanks already in the Uk for posting out. The one i bought, was advertised so i put it on watch. Then came a discount and i asked about a flip up chrome Monza cap and he is fitting that free. The first one i bought needed no filling with body filler at all but did have the fixing holes out of line so made a small bracket. I will get the BSA badges from Australia as they cost less than the ones sold in the UK. Identical badges yet Aus is cheaper
