Its advertised as a Maico tank.

The cap looks Honda??

I am now wondering if it is one of the smallish XR tanks? That would possibly help to lighten up my XR350 0r XR500 RFVC?

Colour says Maico, or maybe a later style tank for an 81/82 XR?

I believe you have yourself an aftermarket Honda ATC 185 3 Wheeler 1980-1983 Plastic Fuel Tank.
Check all the pics of one for sale here on ebay.  It all looks pretty identical.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Honda-ATC-185-3-Wheeler-1980-1983-Plastic-Fuel-Tank-Gas-Cap-New-Replacement-/271643831209?pt=Motors_ATV_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3f3f3beba9&vxp=mtr
Cheers,
Alex
