I had that same rusting problem in my '81 GS 1000 G. I cleaned and flushed the tank several times.
The same result every time, until I stared to use 0.5 % of good quality two stroke oil in fuel. No new rust anymore..

Since that(over 10 years ago) I have used that two stroke oil trick in all my steel tank bikes, GSX 1400, XJR 1300 and ER 5,
0.3-0.5% depending on season.
No rust, no visible smoke, no dirt or carbon on spark plugs, and no knocking problems with every boost level I use.

Some of my friends use that same trick on their bikes with the same result (including two turbo bikes)

We're bound to do another ride out fairly soon Pete, we'll have to invite DD along.
Aka Chris Leam on the original Org.

Absolutely. I'm down to Devon today for a week but I'll be in touch when I'm back and see a dry day in sight.

Are you still usually available Fri-Sun?

Pop over the border in to Cornwall on Sunday, we have our usual charity Easter Egg ride, all proceeds for kids in hospital etc, end up at a nice venue with live music, food and ales, drop me a pm if interested  :onya:

Thanks for the invite T250, regrettably I'm coming down in the car to attend a chalet owner's meeting on Sunday.

I do hope to get down to my place in Dartmouth at least once or twice this year on one of the bikes, maybe we could catch up somewhere - I remember stumbling across what looked to be a Bike Night in Bude last summer, is it a regular thing?

T250

Yes every Wednesday night down at the canal in Bude, special bikers discount for a mug of tea  :)
