The TR-1 goes alu

Didn't build the tank myself, it's a Norton aluminium tank I've opened on the bottom to be modified to fit the Yamaha frame. It was a "bargain" but also quite beaten up (sorry didn't think to make some "before" pics). Lets see how it will turn out, hope it will worth it to have a piece of history on the bike.


But I think it looks pretty good already
