HELLO AND WELCOME TO MY LISTING. HERE FOR SALE IS A GENUINE SUZUKI GS1000S CHAIN DRIVE PETROL TANK NEW OLD STOCK. TANK IS BEEN IN STORAGE FOR 40 YEARS. SUPPLIED BY SUZUKI TO A BODYSHOP AS A REPLACEMENT FOR A GS1000S WHICH HAD VERY MINOR DAMAGE ON THE TANK, HOWEVER THIS TANK WAS NEVER USED AS TANK DAMAGE WAS MOSTLY UNSEEN SO THIS ONE WAS BOUGHT BY THE OWNER AS A SPARE. OVER THE 40 YEARS THE TANK HAS BEEN MOVED FROM PLACE TO PLACE AND PICKED UP MINOR PINPRICKS IN THE PROTECTIVE PAINT COAT ON THE TOP SIDE OF THE TANK WHICH HAS LEAD TO LIGHT SURFACE RUST SPOTS, THE UNDERSIDE SHOWS WATER SPLASHES WHICH WERE NOT DRIED OFF, ALL OF WHICH WOULD DISAPPEAR EASILY WHEN RUBBED DOWN FOR THE COLOUR CODE OF YOUR CHOICE. AS YOU CAN SEE FROM A FEW OF THE PICTURES THE INSIDE IS ABOUT AS GOOD AS IT GETS AS I FOUND OUT WHEN I PEELED THE PROTECTIVE TAPE AWAY FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 40 YEARS TODAY TO TAKE PICTURES, THE PETROL CAP HOLE TAPE DISINTEGRATED, THE FUEL SENDER HOLE TAPE MANAGED TO SURVIVE, I DIDN’T BOTHER TRYING TO REMOVE THE PETCOCK TAPE.
