ID this tank and petcock please!

[ClintonX]

so I have this tank and petcock, and the only reason I need it ID'ed is so I can buy a new petcock for it! it doesn't shut the gas flow off so I'm looking to buy a new one but of course, I don't know what it is.. take a look and shoot! thanks!

Kinda tough to make it out - is it a CB500T? The knee dents are similar and they have The dual outlet petcock......

 

[cafetbird]

Maybe a BSA tank?

ClintonX:
I don't know what kind of tank that is, but the exact same tank was on my CB750 when I bought it as a ratbike. I trashed the tank, but saved the petcock. I'll let you have it for the cost of shipping. PM me.

Good looking out, Dave.

For what it's worth, I'm pretty sure it's a cb500t tank, like Rich said.

 

[ClintonX]

yeah good looking out for sure, pm sent

The petcock you need can be found on 1980 CB900C as well as many other 77-81 Hondas (I didn't mention 82 because after that there are a lot of Hondas with vacuum petcocks) -- Also but from 82 the CB900F Supersport used that one -- really common and honda only had one thread diameter/pitch for the screw ons. -- If you're local pop by the shop - I got a bucket you can go through --

Hey, ClintonX, did that package ever show up?

 

[ClintonX]

yeah I got it! I got a couple things in the mail so I've been pretty heavy in the garage lately. but I got it, and it fits, and it works as well. thanks again man, I appreciate it

I have two of those tanks, CB500T, many of the CB petcocks will fit but I know some 750 ones will not.
