Wanted - Street/Flat Track Seat and Tank

[oldbmw1]

I have a 1978 XS650. I like the tank well enough. Was wondering if there is a seat available that fits with stock tank or do I have to buy the tank and seat as a unit?

I like the third bike down on this link:

Thanks. I am thinking its best to stay away from fiberglass tanks with the modern pump gas. Will eat away at the resin and turn it into goo....
Anybody have fiberglass wisdom?

Caswell's tank coating is supposed to be the fix. I will find out one of these days as I have a fiberglass tank that i will end up running.

Does Por-15 work well on fiberglass? I used it back in the mid 90's and it worked well on a Kawi KZ1000 oem tank. It was still fine 5 years later.

I believe Omars fiber tanks comes coated with something
