Tebo,
Yes, I think it was 650Skull that put up some differences between tanks. I went by that. I believe the 76 tank had regular petcocks. Tank looks the same but the depression the fuel cap sits in may be different. I think my best bet, if not a 77 tank is a 76. Machine is right. Petcocks may just swap over on a 76, may not and would have to be dual, which a 76 is - also the gas cap, if the depression around the cap is the same, but at this point, I can't be sure. But it has to be a decal tank .
A place in Canada sells a tank that comes in black, modeled after the XS650D. It's not cheap at $375.00, but it's a moot point since they don't ship out of Canada. Never can tell what the U.S. market will give you. Petcocks from Mikes didn't even come with a strainer on the stand pipes.
If I had not been able to find a full set of decals, that would have really been the pits.
Machine, that's a good looking tank. If I were to get a tank like that I would have to glass over the emblem area. I really don't want to do that.
Thanks for all the help, guys!
