I like the sound of that only thing would be it obviously wouldn't be as strong as aluminium. :)

I have been looking for one but have not found one. They were made by or called 'Pro bowl' or similar. Triple C ad in Trail and Track always had them.

I have a clear float bowl on my trials bikes oko flatslide, it's a good talking point & quite handy for checking how high your float level is set & if there is water in the fuel
