if you aren't totally against it, get a plastic one, no rust, no dents, but it kinda sucks to get stickers to actually stick to them.

1981-1985 tanks are the same but are hard to find in decent shape. Usually the inside of the tank is very badly rusted and the tanks are dented by the fork tubes. ( bent steering stop). This one on ebay looks like it has had the Kreem job.
