    What type and gauge of metal should I use for a seat pan?

    A few constraints: 1. This is not for a cafe racer, so there's no need to consider the rear cowl. 2. This is for a 1980 Honda CB400T. The existing seat pan latched onto two side pieces that are welded onto a curve in the frame. I've attached a photo of this. I plan to chop the cross-supports...

    1980 Honda CB400T - Fugly to Cafe

    I've got the same bike from the same year, also in progress, also my first build. Deciding what to do about the seat has been the hardest decision of all so far. Modify the frame? Chop it off completely and replace it with a DCC bar? Go cafe and hide the battery or mount the electronics inside...

    New from Arizona

    I'm in AZ, too! Downtown Phoenix, to be more precise. Where are you at? Maybe we can help each other — I've got a CB400T in progress (my first) — or just meet for a beer or something.

    Can you identify this tank?

    http://www.flickr.com/photos/nutterphotog/3805868291/lightbox/ Three cheers to anyone who can identify this tank. I don't think it's the stock tank. Thanks!

    Wanted: a tank meeting these specific measurements

    I need a tank and am having a helluva time finding it. Got one lying around and a minute to take a few measurements? Here's what I need, give or take: C-mounts to bolt hole: 18 1/4" Tunnel width = 3 1/2" - 3 5/8" Tunnel depth (from bottom of C-mounts to bottom edge): 2 1/2" Outside width: 12"...

    Tank for a Honda CB400T Hawk

    I was afraid that was the answer. Man. If that's the case, then you'd think people/companies would regularly list tank dimensions on sales pages. Gah. Cheers, peeps.

    Tank for a Honda CB400T Hawk

    Thanks, gents. Got a photo of the CM400T tank? In general, though, how do you determine which tanks will fit a bike? I keep daydreaming that there's some master spreadsheet out there somewhere and I just haven't yet been let in on the secret.

    Tank for a Honda CB400T Hawk

    How do you cats find tanks compatible with various bikes? I've got an '80 CB400T Hawk and I'm dying to find a different tank for it – more rounded and 2" shorter so it fits without the stock extender bracket – but even with every measurement taken, it's a nightmare trying to find a tank at a...
