No obvious holes in tank, and I was able to pop out the dent on the top....I'm going to fill it with pool acid and see if anything leaks out. It was how I saved my GT750J gas tank...

I just realized it's a Skunk. It looked red in your first pic.
Awesome shop/garage.

Welcome to the site, Busa.
With a collection and garage like that you probably won't be needing any help.
Nice to see another Skunk rescued.

So cool that the bike fired and ran that easily.sigpic

Ive been riding almost 35 years, so I have had a chance to collect a few things along the way.
Lost several houses and numerous cars and $$$ through a few very unpleasant divorces....but I've kept my bikes.....I just wish they all ran.

WTF?!? Who the H3LL are you? Your garage just gave me a h^rdon! You in the market for a new best friend? I'm available...
That's an awesome find, I have been looking for another project like that one to bring back to life. Amazing it runs! Good luck with her.

Thanks for the kind words guys.... sometimes I get overwhelmed with all the stuff that needs to be fixed or finished....
But at the same time, it is the only thing that keeps me sane......
Digging up some parts. Have headlight, headlight ears, and one turn signal, fork seals and carb bowl gaskets...
Thinking about putting on some wire wheels, so i can get more substantial rubber on the road.
18x3.5 and 18x2.75 wheels with a 150x70 and 110x80 tread possibly.......deciding spoke length for front still.

Northern Indiana and Chicagoland are really close. Are you in partnership with Ichiban Moto? My guess he is your secret helper to keep all these toys running so well. Very BadAss!!Larry
