    Hi John
    Thanks for the pics
    The original concept and
    A very rare item, as far as I know only 21 aluminium tanks made before the more easily produced nylon composite tanks took over.

    If anybody has more information please add to this post
    regards martin

    I had to take the tank off today to do a battery swap. Here are some pictures of the underside. I hadn’t noticed before but there is a distinct number 8 etched into the bottom, I wonder if all the aly tanks have been numbered?
