Motobike hanging tank

[oldmtrcyc]

I just picked this up today and curious what it fits? It's nice original paint except for the top, where it looks like someone painted over some pitting. I have four motorbikes, all with the same decal, but of different shape tanks as I recall.

Depending on it's measurements.........................( 1934 ?) Hawthorne Flyer 28" Wheels Looks Very Close to me .

I believe I had an early 30's Schwinn with that tank.

I have an original B-10E with the exact color and decal, but maybe a different shape. I can't wait to get home and compare. Thanks for the input!

That green tank is a bit different... If you will notice on the leading edge it's slopes the opposite way. That's a nice bike!

You're absolutely right - my bad.

That may fit the B-10 Schw, Meads, Star, 33-34 Shelby(Lindy), possibly others. I call that the "door stop" style 'cause well, the front is sloped like a door stop.

The front end fits a bike with a 5" head tube, usually on a taller frame bike, (may have been more common earlier).
The rear end, (looks small in profile picture), looks to fit a double drop bar frame with the two bars tighter than some at the seat tube.
Per the decal, it may fit motobikes better than motor bikes.

Exactly the same width/length/height and front angle on both my Schwinn B10's.
