I have Triumph stickers if you want some.

I used Cognito Moto on my build for many things. They were very helpful and delivered what I needed to the UK.

Bloody hell it looks like Wales!

I own Taffy, just the one XS650; but it swallows time and money more than my other bikes collectively X 10! I still love this bike............:bike:

Having done many trips through the UK and Europe, mostly under prepared, I came across this video which made me think differently. It may not be the do all for everyone; but it is a good lead to taking what you need and no more.

Vans a GO GO. Nice work Jim.

@onkelheri also suggested pressurising the tank and using soapy water to fine the leak.

Thanks guys that gives me some direction to follow.

Jan P states 'Tin Solder' is that the same stuff as electrical solder?

The incomplete weld is definitely on the Tank to Lug. Not sure yet where the seepage is coming from. The suggestions here should help me identify that.

All worthy advice, and thank you. I was thinking of using solder as it's readily available. If the crack is small and dowsed with flux the solder should flow into the crack (when I find it). I assume solder (electrical type?). is impervious to petrol?

Thank Fu(k I can't weld then, isn't it! :shrug:

Good idea; like fixing an inner-tube leak; better than wasting petrol.

All About The Grind..... Taff's tank exposure starts in earnest. Weeping seepage can be seen below around the tank mounting lug. It runs down to the bottom seam edge of the tank left hand side (Errr, tank is inverted :whistle:) Let the grinding commence.... Above images show incomplete...

TAFFY GETS TANKED...... My bike has had a developing weeping petrol tank; gradually worsening over the time I've owned the bike. Initial look shows the issue. So I have started to grind off the paint and filler to find the hole....... More on Taffy's build thread later today! WELSH FLAT...
