SFC gas tank?

[750TT]

HI!
Was this gas tank a factory-made product or was it custom-made?

 

[MarnixSFC]

The factory made a handful of these tanks for the 1971 Bol d'Or. They were all handmade in aluminium. All the fibreglass ones are repro.

Thanks Marnix for the information. Does anyone make replicas of this tank? Regards

I have one, fibreglass, has had a repair at some point underneath. I was going to use it on my Barcelona if I damaged the one on my race bike. Sold that bike around 2018. Make me an offer, I’m UK.

Marnix- your SFC tank is gorgeous- I love the side "fins". I owned an SFC yrs ago w a fiberglass tank and didn't realize they came in alloy

I'd ask either Ricardo Oro or Bepe Andrighetto.

Hi 750 TT

My advice, don't use a Fiberglass tank, they can't handle modern gasoline, the fiberglass tank will dissolve, my Spaceframe tank dissolved after a week, so I had one made in Aluminum, just like the original.

Menani was the first to make replicas of the Bol 71 tanks back in the 70ies. Menani are no longer in business, but now and then these tanks still appear on autojumbles.

Old factory 1971 Breganze, Giuseppe Gasparotto (alias "Bepi Moma") first tank in aluminun (light alloy) firsts n. 60 750SFC.
And he made also these alluminium tanks for the 1971 Bol d'Or.
