I have rust inside the gas tank that is now causimng the fuel system to act up. I am assuming this is the problem as the bike acts like it's running aout of gas when there is clearly half a tank in there ???.  Especially at higher speeds when I throttle up it starts to slow down and want to shut off then seems like it gets a shot of gas and lurches forward...it does this repeatedly, got very scary going on the highway (happened to me twice)  :o - as soon as I fill the tank it seems to aleviate the problem. I can see rust inside the tank that is why I'm assuming this is the problem.  I knwo there's some kind of coating that can be done, has anyone had this done? If so, what did it run cost-wise? does anyone know what a new tank would run...? I'm scared to go on the highway. HELP!
