I have no idea.
Strange, but it has the traditional "deer leg" molding job on the downtubes, just like the big twins used to get over the sidecar loop areas.
I think that tank was added a little later on, I bet it was a sporty tank at first.

Thanks for the reply and history lesson on the "deer leg" molding. It's great that some people molded over the loops instead of hacking em off.
This is a cool bike. It runs great, but rides like crap. BTW, JW sent me over here. Thanks guys.
