No, that black key-line isnt jagged - it's beautiful - I'm
just cr*p at taking photographs.
I brought this tank from Ebay and had it sand-blasted
and re-painted. The NOS Tank trims, Tank cap, badges and NOS Petcock shown on
the bike were all sourced from the USA. The side panel and oil tank are
original T500J and have been re-painted and fitted with NOS original CCI
sticker, cap and lens.
Here are the T500J Tank badges. I brought them and when I recieved
them, I decided to have them restored. Brian Cutler in Australia did a great
job - they now look mint. I have it on good authority that originals have 'made
in japan' and a logo on the rear as seen to the left.
