Not sure but looks like a Kat tank to me. the experts will let you know for sure.
 
Thanks, I'm really looking for a '84 or '85 GS700 tank but the guy offering this one isn't sure what it is and neither am I. The two pin side panel mount looks right but the cut out for the side panel looks too big.

It is not a 700 tank, maybe a late 80's Katana 750 pop-up or an 83 750 e/es..

I think your right about it being a 750 Kat tank, I've got an '83 750es tank already and this one isn't even close. My intent is to install the 700 body on my 750 (they have a better side panel setup), and then paint it with a Kat like scheme next year when I do a full frame off restoration. But to use the 700 side panels you have to use the 700 tank (which I'm still looking for).

Tom,
I'm in Allendale Michigan, so West Port Mass is a little bit beyond a Saturday drive. Do you know if they have a web site?

PS: Thanks for the heads up! :clap:

This is a 750 pop up I believe. I snaped this photo in Scotland in August of 2011. Owner is Jason 77.

I do believe that's right . It's a Katana tank. My 750E has a shorter cut out on the side than that.;)

Mad

Yup,i was wrong,the pic i looked at was too distant,looked like it had the 3 lines and the turndown at the tail thoo,Nice find,I live RSBFS,read all the time there.
 
Definitely a pop up Katana tank. Hampshire hog nailed it first!

Ask him if he has the mirrors from the bike that came from - I'll be needing some as I'm about decided to do a resto job on my 84 pop up Katana sometime in the next few years....
