Need a bit of help with a CL360...

rabbitpuncher
What's up guys. I recently impulsively bought a 1974 Honda CL360, thinking I could jump onto this whole cafe bandwagon. I really like the look of the bike (love those higher exhausts). I made the mistake of impulsively buying this thing and didn't really look it over. I got it pretty cheap but it does need a few parts here and there. This past week I started disassembly and took off the tank. It is in primer stage and it looked a bit wavy on one side. I thought it was just a bit of Bondo covering the holes and indentations for the Honda emblems but as i stripped it more and more, I noticed a pretty nice dent on the right side. My heart sunk a bit. I wanna try to keep this thing as cheap as possible and don't really want to send this thing to a body shop to pull out all the dents and leave it brand new. I would like to just swap it out for another tank. My question is: Does anybody out there know what other Hondas have a similar tank that would fit it? I haven't done too much research yet but any help is always appreciated. I was looking at some pictures of similar cb350s and assume they would fit. I was recently on here for a charging problem on my '81 CB750f and received a ton of help, so I know this group is a smart bunch. Any help is always appreciated.
Speak your mind, even if your voice shakes.

I know that any CB/CL 350/360 tank will fit right on. However some others might with just a few modifications.
