Anyone else collect tanks?

[crash n bern]

I don't know why Freakshow got upset about tank collectors when there's a whole movement of people turning perfectly good tanks into toasters.  Next they'll be making matching bread boxes out of Maico tanks.

John. maybe you should hang that Maico from a tree and wait till you get a good offer.  Or I could swap you a Hodaka tank for it.

Every time I trip over a tank at the right money I buy it..... especially the sought after alloy ones (B50MX, YZ250A/C, TM, RM A/B, CR250s), they are like real estate they are not making any more and I may need them for future projects.

I will share them amoungst my mates, but learn't the hard way twice, with people needing a tank to 'finish their dream bike' , then promptly selling it on after you give them a deal.
