NOW SOLD
Off to Italy
This is a decent original steel petrol tank for a mid-twenties Flat-tank Marston Sunbeam motorcycle.
It’s a bit rough here and there but it would suit a bike that needs to look original and unrestored. It still has traces of the original paint and gold lines.
The threads are decent. There has been some unsightly repair to the rear lower edge. It looks like a very old repair. If I was keeping the tank, I’d tidy this up. Apart from the repair, this is a solid old tank.
I have not tested the tank, so it is sold as you see it. I have shown images of the inside of both sides of the tank.
The dimensions of the underside frame fixing points are:
- Width across the tank (centre to centre) 4 1/2″ at front and back.
- Distance from front to back fixing points (centre to centre) 16 1/4″
Other approximate dimensions are in a small sketch shown in the images. Please make sure this tank fits your frame as it appears that they differ wildly, especially in length.
Other Sunbeam parts: I have some. Please get in touch.
