Anybody ID this tank?

Hi all, I hate to be posting questions about H****s on here, but there doesn't seem to be much going on their sites.
But I bought this old cb350 to teach my wife to ride, and that's going fine, but now I've been gettin some ideas on how it oughta look with her riding on it.
Well I found this picture, and the bike has this great looking tank on it, but I haven't been able to figure out who makes it.
Anybody know?

:woohoo: :laugh: :laugh: I knew that was coming!

Seriously, mine is a 1971, has kind of a squarish looking tank.
But the one in the pic above doesn't look like anything I've ever seen on a Honda. Was thinking maybe Manx or something like that.

Looks a little small to be a Water Buffalo (aka GT750) tank. Looks Europeanish like an old Ducati or something. And I agree about riding her all day long any day. After looking again it could be a Honda tank from maybe a CL175.

Kawickrice, I think you might've nailed it. I think it is in fact a Honda tank, but I think it might be from the four cylinder 350 they made back then. Found another pic of the same bike and chick:

Anyway, I like the lines of the tank and if it is from a CB350four, I'm pretty certain it'll fit right onto my two banger.
Don't know about ya'll, but I think there's something really sexy about a chick with worn out knees in her pants.;)
