I'll see if I can fingure out who made it. It's plastic with a gold metal filter that's cone shaped. It barely fits in behind the carbs but it works fine. --- On Fri, 3/18/11, Kyle Munz <[email protected]> wrote: >From: Kyle Munz <[email protected]> >Subject: Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Trying to locate a gas tank for a red 1985 >HondaNighthawk 650SC >To: [email protected] >Date: Friday, March 18, 2011, 12:36 AM > > >All of the glass ones I've seen at autoparts places, etc, are too big.
