I got a really good deal on a Tank for an America on Ebay and am having it painted black with the UK flag on the side where the silver normaly is. [image]http://www.bonnevilleamerica.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=3686[/image]

Are you going to have the rest of your bike painted to match?

Very nice, I'm thinking everyone that wants should have two tanks. ...just when the checkbook was coming up for air.

I got a second tank off of ebay in mint condition except for a nickle size ding (easy fix) for 117.00 was my winning bid price. I have my original tank nicely stored away.

Really nice Phil, who did the paint job? The Union Jack really pops against the black background!
