It looks like they added a 2nd petcock to a r65/r80G/S/R80ST tank.
Well, looking closer, it may just be the paint job that makes it look that way. It doesn't have a flush cap.
And at least the pipes are under the engine.
I've never seen a good airhead with pipes over, except for the factory enduros.

This is one of those 'right click and open in a new tab' giant pix.
Call me Mel. Some years ago- never mind how long precisely- having little or no money in my purse, and nothing particular to interest me at home, I thought I would ride about a little and see the other parts of the world.
Re: Y'all will hate this one
I thought the footpegs on that bike were inline, melville.
But yeah, Veg, nice bike!

Yep, inline. Goofyfooters demanding at least evenness in what is mostly a regularfooters' world.Rob wrote:I thought the footpegs on that bike were inline, melville.

I thought you were calling offset pegs "Goofyfooting".

Regular = left foot forward, like Mike Hynson:
I'd say that regular:goofy is one of those 80:20 things.
