Restoring an XS2, but have a problem. One of the tabs sticking back from the fuel filler neck broke. The pin that holds the cap's latch goes through one tab and into the other. Glued the piece with JB Weld, but it only held for a short time.
Does anyone have a fix for this? It' looks like cast aluminum, but the ring it is part of is attached to the filler neck. It's so soft I can't imagine it hasn't broken on others.
Of course I'd be interested in any early XS 650 tanks anyone might have for sale. I think that would be '70, '71 or 72, with the strap for the plastic emblems welded to it.
