Norton Commando Roadster Aluminum Fuel Tank — Hand-Formed in England, Original Tooling
This is not a mass-produced reproduction. This tank was hand-formed in England by a craftsman with a well-established reputation in the British motorsport world as both a race car chassis builder and motorcycle frame maker. His work is known and respected within professional racing and restoration circles.
Critically, this tank was produced using original Norton tooling — meaning the dimensions, profiles, and proportions are correct to the factory specification, not approximated from measurements taken off a surviving example. The result is a tank that fits, looks, and sits exactly as an original should.

Why aluminum over fiberglass?
Aluminum does not crack, craze, or deteriorate with age and modern ethanol-blended fuels the way fiberglass does. It can be repaired, shaped, and finished to a standard no fiberglass tank can match. This is the upgrade serious restorers and riders choose.
This is a low-volume, artisan-made piece. Once gone, these are not easy to source again.
