Just acquired a 1971 Fastback. Returned to the UK from the States recently. Was there ever a metal tank made for this bike. It has the original fibreglass one which I know I can seal. I also know there the Indian ones for sale on ebay. Just a thought really.

Yes got it mixed up, no steel Fastback except from India. One exception is the Fastback LR which uses the Interpol steel tank but the seat does not have the ears.

Yes they were steel after 72 and a good replica has been made in steel by Emgo of Taiwan which is good quality. So google Emgo Commando Roadster tank or talk to Andover Norton or RGM to see if they stock them. RGM show theirs as supplied by Wassell, this looks like the Emgo tank but ring to check first.

No need to risk India for a Roadster steel tank.
