Title: Legend or Thunderbird gas tank
Post by: ssevy on September 23, 2022, 09:18:20 PM
I left my Legend parked with a full tank of treated gas, but forgot to go back and drain it, so the inside is a mess. Anyone have one kicking around?

They don't come up very often in the UK and when they do get snapped up quick by guys doing Cafe Racer customs.

Can you not treat and reseal it? There are kits available and also I found a couple of places you can send your tank off too and they will do it for you. Looks to be cheaper than a new tank.

I am looking as you are not the only one to make that mistake  :icon_redface:

Clean it out with a couple days of soaking with citric acid, cheap and safe, can be poured away easily, I used it many times on fuel tanks and bike parts, works well.

Thanks, worth knowing, I will give it a try on mine when I get some timr.
