Up til now the work has been cookie cutter stuff. As I wait on engine parts it’s time to think about a gas tank and exhaust. The tank that came on the engine is a big no. The after market aluminum ones are neat but no.
Time to make my own and utilize some wasted space.
My cardboard mock up ( shown ) will work with a few tweaks.
I’m leaning on this design because the seat bolts will also hold the tank. I’ll tig weld a tube thru the tank and utilize a longer bolt for the front. At the rear the top of the tank will run wild far enough for two holes and the original bolts. Originally I wanted my tank rearward and the cap behind the seat but that’s a little too tight with my planned header.
