Hello XS Masters,
I recently bought a XS gas tank on ebay and got what I think is a good deal. I'm restoring a 81 Special and prefer the centered cap hole and the fact that this new tank doesn't have emblem mounting hardware I would have to remove. Anyway, I brought a cap from Mike's thinking is was the right one but it doesn't appear to be unless I'm missing something, see photo. Based on my research I thought all tanks with a center fuel hole are early. The ebay tank did come with a lock or a piece of the lock that looks like it belongs to another type of cap. If anyone knows what tank I have/year of tank brought or have any thoughts I will buy you a breakfast burrito the next time you are in Santa Fe, NM. See photos...
