I have looked at those husky tanks but im pretty damn sure the underside tunnel shape is no good for suzukis.

Paul it will cost at least $1000 for someone in Aus to make one of those tanks. Modified husky one might be the cheapest way.

i have had one of those husky tanks but in plastic for the early 80's 250/430 and the tunnel is very narrow and i think you have to re-locate the coil on the suzuki. the tunnel area near the seat is also not big enough to clear the 2 rails that the seat sits on, but since its alloy it could be all changed underneath i guess.
