Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] tank swap resources?
True. If you had asked this question a couple of months ago when I had both my 650 and 700 apart I could have tried to see if it would fit. I've got the 650 up for sale and ppl looking at it right now so I can't really take it apart. The petcock is in a different location but otherwise they're similar, I'm not sure about the length and tunnel width though, but with enough hammering... maybe? I don't know if those are any easier to find than 700 tanks though. -Kyle On Tue, May 30, 2017 at 4:08 PM, ChrisV wrote: > I'm not worried about aesthetics.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] tank swap resources?
I'm not worried about aesthetics. I'm looking for a tank that I can bolt on so the bike will run. It's going to take a while to restore the factory tank and, since they are almost impossible to find, I need to do this one slowly and right. Having a spare in the meantime would be nice. The choice between a bike that looks right sitting in the garage and one that's on the road is an easy one.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] tank swap resources?
The styling on the 700 tank is pretty unique to the bike, anything else wouldn't look right. That said, I don't know of any other models that would physically fit. -Kyle On Tue, May 30, 2017 at 10:46 AM, ChrisV wrote: > Are there any resources available to cross reference which tanks may > interchange, either bolt on or with minimal modification, between > models/years?

[Nighthawk Lovers] tank swap resources?
Are there any resources available to cross reference which tanks may interchange, either bolt on or with minimal modification, between models/years? I've got an '84 700S and the tank needs serious internal rust removal and sealing. It may be easier to find a new tank but the 700S is extremely rare. Looking for any possible alternatives. OEM from another model year or aftermarket. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.

Sure thing - I would take $40 for the right fork plus shipping.

[Nighthawk Lovers] Re: FS: 1985 CB650 Nighthawk Part-out
The circlip holes snapped off my right fork when i was trying to replace the oil seal. Would you sell just the right fork? and how much?
