Parts !!!!

Ok so the first of the spare parts has arrived , all the way from Australia . I managed to get my hands on a Original Honda NOS Exhaust Muffler . Mind you this isnt actually the correct muffler for this particular model bike but I bought it anyway just to use until i find the correct NOS muffler. There plenty more parts coming my way soon , ill update with more info as soon as they arrive ! ( For those who dont know what NOS means , it stands for New Old Stock )

 The real deal !!! Super RARE

Still looking damn good for something thats been sitting 
on a shelf for the last 30 years. 

I also removed the tank from the bike last weekend to try remove some of the rust out of the tank . Basically just washed it out with water until it ran clear and then i threw some cap screws ( because i had no nuts lying around at the time ) and shook them around in the tank for about 10 minutes and that seemed to do a decent enough job of removing the heavy stuff. I'm going to eventually treat the inside with some kind of epoxy coating but only once its been painted .

  1. Iv discovered the tank has a pinhole or three internally, between the oil and fuel tank. Will POR15 tank sealant close these holes up ?? ANYBODY ???
