Slabby tanks

Wider bottom? I think the bottom width was always the same. In 1986, the 5.5 gallon tank was introduced on some markets, and it's rounder and  taller. Any pics of what you mean?

The tank i was looking at was wider above the frame rails. I'll try and get a pic later

This is the shape of tank i was looking at . Just wanted to know if it would fit a 750 before i started pestering the guy to sell it 14794181_10154587194644197_727704348_n.jpg.9fcba18d1ba507bb82209092d7812378.thumb.jpg.ea844a4613d12b6ddd0f1c96d1abc770.jpg

That's a 5.5 gallon tank. It was introduced on both 750 and 1100 in 1986, on some markets, e.g. UK, and in 1987 on other markets. The tanks are interchangeable, but petrol cock placement and geometry varies between 750 and 1100.
