Posted November 7, 20159 yr Hi everyone Just bought myself a Yamaha xj600 Pre diversion for £400, been sitting for 2 years but everything seems to work well. Going to give it a service and see if I can get an MOT on it. It needs a new seat, and its also got a dent in the fuel tank, anyone have any ideas of how to get a dent like this out? I saw on you tube someone got a pump up blood pressure monitor and put it in the tank, pumped it up and popped it out! Here's some pictures,https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B48n4iTraftlZmVDYlpBUkZyU0E/view?usp=sharinghttps://drive.google.com/file/d/0B48n4iTraftlcDkxaXg4Wnl6V2c/view?usp=sharinghttps://drive.google.com/file/d/0B48n4iTraftlQ2ltSjlxbFBPdFk/view?usp=sharing cheerspuffnut

November 8, 20159 yr Nice bike, welcome. Maybe an old wives tale but looooong time ago I heard something like, fill it with uncooked peas ........ you heard me right :-) and fill it with water. Peas swell up and push dent out. Could have completely wrong end of stick ...... in which case, carry on Google & Youtube are your friends.

This is a bike forum, not a cookery show!... fill it with water and freeze it, not too much tho....
