Cut the efi and mount out of the old tank and weld it into a regular tank, sporty or otherwise. Problem solved

Why not just take it to a welder (if you don't weld yourself) and get it patched?

I was looking for some stock parts for a friend's bike on xlforum the other day. I saw some on their classifieds but didn't pay attention to price.
