Last time I checked, these are reproduced and Year One sells them.  Have you checked there?

I just went to the Year One website, www.yearone.com and they have the correct plastic washer bottle listed.  It's the one that fits under the fender, bolted to the inner fender and next to the battery.  Item number is BM3405, for $79.95.

Here it is. I do remember that the new lid broke off in my hand the first time I touched it. So I took the original lid out of my broken tank and put it on the new tank. So be careful with the lid.

Has anyone tried the jar from Fusick?  They claim it fits the 65 GS.  My car doesn't have one so I can't tell.  I've attached a picture.  Price is more friendly at $38.00 if it's the right one.

I R&R the washer bottle today and I'm back do'in the Happy Dance.For anyone needing one it's a exact repo. Fusick's price was 38.00 very reasonable dollars.Didn't care to much for the 10.00 shipping and handling and insurance but still a hell of a lot better than what Y.O. wants.I give it two thumbs up!
