I would say that is the result of Water sitting in the tank,it tends to sink to the bottom in fuel,causing it to rust.
Water is sometimes found in 'dirty' petrol station tanks,and when they get low on fuel,the pumps drag it up.
I still recon you could get that repaired,it's worth a phone around!!??

Yeah you could be right speedy because when i drained the tank a fair amount of rusty coloured crap came out and formed globules in the fuel -water?- i was wondering wether water could have got in the tank through the filler cap but your explanation of the petrol pump situation could be correct.
I am going to take the tank to the bike shop tomorrow to see what they suggest and to see if they can possibly repair it.
