After countless attempts to fix the tank with leak fix i have given up and ordered a new tank.
Every time i fixed a leak in one place it would leak from another, splosh, mine also had a hole in the right side of the tank like yours.
Why this has happened can only be down to sitting water in the tank but on a 7 year old bike i think it is still crap.
I also have a 1957 BSA bantam and that tank has never leaked!!
For anybody who has the same problem a new tank is £239.20 plus vat.
I did consider buying one off ebay but the only one available was a blue one and the paint bloke wanted £150 to spray it the correct colour. Also i thought that maybe a similar age tank might have the same problem.
Getting it done next week so at least i will be able to go on the annual rideout!
