I have a '79 in stock condition (minus paint). I ended up with a box of parts at a swap meet and started going through them. There's a set of retro side covers (new) that were in there, and an additional gas tank from a early 70's T120 I was thinking of installing on the bike. Quick questions:
1) I have to remove the stock airbox to install the side covers, but the zener diode is using it as a heat sink, is there something else I could use to dissipate heat or is it not that important?
2) The new tank is bigger, but will mount to the bike. It does not have the "bungs" for the under bracket like the existing tank does.... Would I be safe to not use the extra bracket?
Thanks!
