I acquire some parts in a storage unit clean out and need some help identifying them. Any help would be appreciated. It has been suggested that the larger tanks and the carb may belong on the XS650.

I think the little one is a 1972(ish) Yamaha AT1.

Maybe a Yamaha DT250?

First tank is a 70-72 xs1b tank,

Second I believe is a 75ish tx650 tank,

Small tank i think is a dt tank..probably a 250

not sure on the tail light but the carb is a bs38 mikuni. Stock on some xs650s.

Hows that?
 
The tail light looks like the one on my 75. I think they used that same unit on a lot of bikes.
The carb looks to be from an early XS650 The 70-75 left side carb. On the tanks I agree with Tron, And the rust hole in the red one makes it about worthless. If rusted that bad in one spot the rest can't be much better.

It's not "worthless." It just won't work as an actual tank anymore. I'll go all "garage art" on it. I was thinking of repainting it and making a lamp out of it for my man cave.

Here is an old XJ550 tank I cut in half and made into a clock for the cave.

Better think of something to make out of that carb then too, lol.
 
As promised: Here is the red one as a lamp. Tell me what you think. I realize the shade is a little crooked.
