Hi everyone.
So today I got a Honda CB175 tank. I've liked the idea for a while now after seeing CadXS' thread and more recently Jray's, so couldn't believe my luck getting one for £20.
Question is, I'm not sure if i should channel the tank so that it sits a little lower on the frame a little or basically fit it where it is and have a thicker seat to compensate the height difference?
And could I get away with using the petcock off the CB tank?
I still have to fix the plastic rear fender in place at the back but want to tuck it about another 2 inches in under the seat brace, so its just duct taped in place for now.
