Hmmmm loverrrly.

Kev, would you know if that's the standard tank outlet - I know its 851 territory, but I figure you know Corsa gear better than anyone!

Its a shame I only won an Alloy 900ss tank a while back, as I'm thinking (at some time) of turning my Keihin FCR's to run gravity, even though I didnt have leakage issues previously. Sorry, enough blather

Frank you would need to ASK Ron Jolley as it was his tank on Ebay the one he fitted to his DD bike after his Pembrey Crash.
It fitted his Monster very well but is unlikely to fit on a SS frame

Standard for what? it is standard for 851, but not for a Monster. They use an internal fuel pump, but I ran it with a small external pump and extended the feed into the bottom of the tank. It is still sat in my garage ready to be re-listed in the spring.
