Description from the seller

Large fuel tank Hoske for BMW GS 80
Ernst Hoske is best known for his oversized aftermarket tanks of 8-10 gallons that adorned BMWs.

The handcrafted tanks made by Ernst Hoske are now rare and collectible items.

Ernst Hoske was born in Germany in 1921. He was a successful rider for BMW and competed in the 500cc class. Later, he opened a small private workshop and began producing aftermarket tanks, seats, exhaust systems, and various racing equipment for BMW motorcycles. Hoske's workshop was eventually taken over by Kurt Straubel in 1969. Subsequently, Hoske's son-in-law inherited the business. Ernst died in 1976. Today, the workshop is located in Hameln-Hottenbergsfelda and is a BMW dealership called Fuchs. Reproductions of his famous 'Hoske Bags' exhaust pipes are still produced today.
