    The story is legit! That is one of the original short course race tanks. Unfortunately, you will likely never find any correct shrouds, but keep looking. You never know!

    Rob,
    Im glad you like the tank. Im not sure if the production short track shrouds will fit or not. The history on the gas tank. When Team Honda had a race team in the early 80's , Japan used to send us one off Works parts for our race bikes. This is one of the four factory race tanks, that was sent from Japan. I think this one was off of Mike Coe or Marty Hart's bike. Its just been sitting around for years. I wish I had the shrouds for you, but I just dont have them. I have not seen a missile bike in a lot of years. I hope you enjoy the tank, take good care of it and its very rare. Its a pice of ATV history. If you look in the old ATV magazines and see a picture of Mike or Marty, that is the actual gas tank. No joke.
    Tom
    So anybody have an old mag with one of those guys with this tank on their bike? Do you guys think this story is real or is the guy BSing me? I have never seen one like it before!
