    I this photo, I discovered my bike's missing a black rubber part that the gas tank sits on... bikebandit and those sorts of sites don't offer this part. Has anyone found somewhere I could find one of these?

    Finding a new cushion may be more trouble than it's worth. On a bike that old, the rubber on the old one is probably very close to being shot. Maybe prise it off and use it for a pattern and carve two new ones out of an old car tire. Silkscreen squeegies are already flat stock and can be purchased by the foot in all sorts of densities. (durometer ratings)
