What did you do to or for or with your Laverda today?

Picked up my tank from Redistrip this morning, Tank is well striped, bit of scuffing on the left side as evident in the second photo but im hoping most of that will polish out.... :(

Assume the damage was there and uncovered by the stripping.

Filler can hide many an embarassing DPO moment...

exactly as Paul said, expected some bog to be there but a bit blown away by the extent, and the crap repair that the DPO tried.
Am fairly confident I can get it saved, good thing is the tank is otherwise sound.

... rare, early 3C tank! What happened?
Ciao, Gert

Gert is the direction of the filler cap the only difference or are there other factors that mark it as early?

Now Tom I know Gert couldn't see this in your photo but I bet there is a seam weld right along the centre line of the tank put your finger inside the filler and you will feel it!!!!

Maurice, didn?t the later tanks have the centre seam? I only ask, because I have a triple tank in storage that has a welded centre seam.
 
And I thought my engine was bad. Where did you find that? On the end of a boat mooring chain?
