1.5 vs. 2mm sheet alloy means less wear on press forming tools (I guess tanks are not entirely hand formed) and of course easier forming of the manually shaped parts, thus less time and money spent in prefab, less time for welding, etc. As Don (madass140) pointed out, Tab II tanks do not feature a brazed filler neck. That's another "saving", at the expense of the customer of course. Quality has a price-Knut

NRP one's aren't brazed either though.

If you enquired with them I have to believe you, but looking at petrol tanks for the Commando, the threaded neck appear to be welded or brazed.

After an exchange of emails, my part is on the way to the USA. Very friendly folks and a good price for what I needed: a 2" Lucas ammeter.
