For anyone who is interested, I have just this minute ordered a black and gold interstate tank from Vintageindia13. The big delivery date is from 10th March to 20th March. I'll keep this post updated as things progress. If you are not racked with arthritis, please keep your fingers crossed for me.
I paid £330 inc postage. Sigh!
If anyone needs a fibreglass interstate tankthat would look its best in a landfill, feel free to collect.
Kev.

Kevin, you are implying "Indian fuel tanks are rubbish". I was acting as "Devil's advocate". A "Wideline" Dominator fuel tank is a more complex shape than any of the Commando range, and my Indian copy was almost perfect. There are many U.K. suppliers of "so called" Norton parts, which are completely useless, but, you don't condemn an entire country on the basis of one bad product.
p.s. my age is approaching 80, not 88, and I presume that I was riding Nortons before you were conceived.

Before it becomes any more perverse, could you please close this thread down now Dave. It has gone far enough I think.
Thanks.

Sorry to answer this on your thread, Kev.
Yes John, the very same, made by John Jackson in Cumbria. I found him after a thread saying that wideline versions were not available.
He supplies RGM etc with slimline handles but none asked him for wideline handles. If the club had a small stock it would eliminate the search and there would be a template for when John J retires.
Back to the Indian tank:
