Norton Tank, Roadster, Fireflake Roman Purple
A Roadster-style gas tank finished in Fireflake Roman Purple, listed in the 1971-1972 fuel tank catalog section.
This is a Roadster-style gas tank finished in Fireflake Roman Purple, as listed in the fuel tank section of the parts books covering 1971 and 1972. The catalog entry sits alongside both fibreglass and steel tank listings, plus tank fittings and decals, so this is a complete tank rather than a fitting or badge.

The "Roadster" designation refers to the tank shape and style as named in the catalog, and the Fireflake Roman Purple call-out tells you the paint finish that shipped on this particular tank rather than describing a bare or unpainted item. Beyond that, our record is a single catalog line, so we don't have more detail on material (steel vs fibreglass) or exact capacity from what's in front of us.
If you're trying to match paint or shape to a specific machine, call the shop and we'll confirm fitment before you order. The manufacturer tag on this entry doesn't match what a gas tank actually is, so don't put weight on that field.
We've never carried this one. Tell us what you're after and we'll go looking — you'll get a price and photos before you commit to anything.
