    Will gas tank from xs400 fit my XJ650 1982?

    I bought SECA tank, and fitted it to my XJ. looked amazing. Had to cut the frame of the front of the seat but it looked mint. Tank had large dent that was not accessible so I blasted 150 PSI in it and it seemed to have worked amazing on the dent, but also it deformed the tank to the state of garbage.

    I'm selling the bike and need it to look good, Currently no SECA tanks sold in my area (Toronto) but there is mint tank for $100 from XS tank rear seem to be identical not sure about the length or the front fitment.

    Please advise or suggest on other good looking tanks. anything from Honda fits? or other Yamaha models? I don't like the Maxim tanks.

    How much welding are you willing to do?
    The front mounts are of the same type as on the XJ, but the rear mount is quite a bit different (depending on year), and I think the tank is shorter front-to-back.


    Here's the deal. You're selling it, so what tank you like doesn't matter. Put a 650 max tank on (easily found) and list the bike.
