[MEairheads] Gas tank stank....

 Nik...
Sounds like the inside of your tank was looking like the outside of their barn (picture on their website).  Good to get it cleaned out..
First ride was yesterday on Honda XR650L.  BMW is still in the dining room.

 I have my RS gas tank down at Barrington Motor Works where they are 
doing a reline.  It was a project I knew I had to get done as the old 
stuff in there was flaking off and looked really nasty. So a few weeks 
ago I took a drive down to drop it off and Ande started the process.  
Barrington has a tumbler that they mount the tanks on and use various 
solutions and techniques.  After sitting for a week with Evaporust and 
drained, Ande used various pliers and other claw-like devices to pull 
some of it out.  Even he was horrified...

I looks like it was relined at least once and there is some foam-like 
stuff there that he said came out of the pockets.   He was afraid of 
what else he might find....

Be well and get out to ride.  I hear the middle of the month is looking 
better!

And don't forget to reup with the ABC if you haven't already!
