Still enjoying your videos Ryan. What i like is how authentic they are. You don't try and test things out first, but let us see mistakes and work as it happens. Brave man! I bought a barn find SD250 jan 2022 and found your channel soon after that. Just about finished my rebuild this summer and i followed most of your uploads which were very helpful. That and the Superdream forum who always give great help. Thanks and looking forward to seeing Sid on the road or track!
Thank you David. I appreciate the feedback. I try to show as much as possible and I am clearly no expert, so suspect I reflect how many of us are in our own garages. Well done on your own project. Hope you get a lot of enjoyment from it.
Hi Ryan. I'd get a couple of tank sealing kits. They come with cleaner and rust neutraliser. Then apply the tank liner. Sort the rust and any pin holes in one go. If you go this route make sure you get the ethanol resistant ones. I know some people have had bad experiences with them but if you get a good quality kit and do it right they work fine. I've done two tanks. One 8 years ago and the other about 2 years ago. Both holding up fine.
Behind the bubble will be porous letting out petrol fumes which is basically melting and softening the paint. You won't necessarily have petrol in the bubble .

Thanks Colin, that does seem the sensible way to go.
The rust wouldnt have helped much with your fueling problems either Ryan,old tanks youve got to expect that sort of thing👍
Thanks Derek, yes i agree with both those statements.

Thanks Joe, that would make sense.
🏍👍👍👍🏍
use por15 sealer that will sort it.
I will google that, thanks.
Did you check the length of the springs Ryan
Hi Stephen, Yes I did (maybe I failed to include that in the edit) they are well within spec. Thanks.
