PN · 83-2270

This is the aluminium gas tank listed as 83-2270 in the parts book, also carried under the earlier F12270 designation. It sits up front on the frame top rails where the fuel supply lives, feeding the carburetors and giving the bike its profile.

The catalog record ties this one to a single appearance in the 1971 listings, in the section covering gas tanks and twinseats together. Beyond that we don't have more detail on this one, so if you're matching this to a specific machine, bring us your frame and tank mounts or give the shop a call before you order.

Aluminium tanks like this show up in racing and lightweight builds of the era. If you're trying to confirm this is the right tank for your bike, check your existing mounting points and tap positions against what you're ordering.
