Default Need custom gas tank advice

I need help figuring out what years of tanks will fit my 2014 Low Rider. I am looking for a tank do to being in a wreck last night. Is there anyone out there that makes custom bikes for our bikes? I am going to do all the repairs myself but can't for the life of me find anyone that makes custom tanks. Maybe it's the meds but I sure would appreciate some help.

Tough question with your Low Rider being a new, reintroduced model. I believe the older 06 and up Low Riders shared the tanks with the Street Bobs. May be worth trying to get a part number for the tank on your 14', then do a search to see if it fits other model. Aftermarket may be hard to do, but may set you up to be able to get a good used tank that can be repainted.

Good luck!

How custom are you looking for? I've seen Dynas with Sportster tanks, and custom tanks build using Sportster fuel pumps.

I was wanting something that just wasn't a stock piece as I do need a tank.

ouch... i replied to your other post. everything else on the bike we can repair no problem... the tank, to be honest it will prob be more $$$ to repair it than to get a new or used one. exp after you factor paint. I was hoping it was lower on the tank then we could have looked at dishing it but at the bend there it is really tough to do anything custom with it

Any Dyna tank will bolt up, it is a matter of matching the console mounts. I don't see the 2014 Lo-Rider listed in the online parts finder yet, but several other 2014 Dynas still show tank part numbers clear back to 04.
