Looking for a long range tank with seams that will let me keep the toolbox and saw this. What do you reckon, out of india/vitenam or uk made. I suspect it is and as such will proably come with issues (leaks)

Looks like a Saigon Scooter Centre one.
I've had two. Both split around the thread for the fuel tap. If you had it re-enforced before use it would probably be fine.
I eventually spent the extra on an SSP one.

Mate had one of these, came from Leeds as well, it wouldn't fit in the frame, the seams of the tank were too wide, it touched the frame tube at the back and the toolbox at the front. There was hardly any threads for the fuel tap to screw onto and the tank was full of rust. In the end he could have bought a much more expensive quality one
