This is the reason for my price reduction from what I believe is the actual/comparable value Both tanks have minor leaks. I have had them re-soldered and sealed twice but 50+ years of metal fatigue has caused continued leaking. Exact reproduction metal tanks are available from several sources. New tanks need to be added before any long distance riding. There are some paint and chrome scars. The bike was dropped when loading onto a trailer and sustained some minor scratches on front fenders, handlebars, and crash bars. There are also some minor paint nicks from transport and storage. More pics available detailing damage. $25,000.00 9163161069
