Hi Mark and welcome.
What Jere said... That is a nice tank, so would be a shame to chop it up. A million years ago I chopped up a very rough Matchless tank when I made a 16C sort of replica trials bike from a pile of bits. Didn't change the shape as such, but narrowed and sectioned the tank, made a new tunnel etc... Wasn't too bad to weld, as was probably 20g. I would bet that the Honda tank you have is quite a bit lighter gauge than that, so would be a real challenge to shape and weld. Really neat project to make a tank from scratch.
Look forward to seeing some progress shots of whatever you decide to do.
