I am looking for a shop that will be willing to teach me how to build my cafe. Basically allow me to work on my bike in their shop while a professional mechanic watches and shows me what to do. I am willing to pay the standard rate. I have no any idea what I am doing. The bike is a 75 cb550...

Agreed! make it resemble the lines of the tank a bit more. it will fit better

Will an 82 cb900 tank fir my 75 cb550 with little modification? If not, what is the easiest tank to install from a different model?

Does the tank have rust on the inside? I need a new tank for my 75 cb550

I tried using small nuts while the clr was inside the tank. Let the clr sit over night, then shook it up a bunch. It helped but there is still visible rust. I have not even considered sealer yet, need to eliminate the rust first.

Building a 75 cb550. The original tank has a decent amount of rust on the inside. I have given it several baths in clr, and the rust wont fade. I contacted Rusteco and it will cost $125 to treat a five gallon tank. I also sourced a new steel tank which costs $250. What do you guys suggest?

I need a new solenoid for my '75 CB550. Where do I get it from? Zack

Glad to see youre making head way! I ran a search on how to prevent flash rust for you. It seams most car restoration guys either spray with primer or use one of two metal prep solutions. The one mentioned most is called Ospho, and the other is called Picklex20. Both remove rust, inhibit rust...
