Default 4.5 gallon tank on a nightster

I just put a 4.5gal tank on my Nightster and thought I would share some pics. To me it looks damn good with it on there (the paint helps). I know people have asked about doing a tank swap but there has never been any pics that I know of. So let me know you think...

Looks great IMHO, plus the added tank cap, can't beat that with a stick

I've seen your paintjob on other sites when I was first creeping around for nightster pics and info. My 09 was just delivered last thurs. The tank size is the only minor problem I worry about on it. I would love to see some full side shots of your bike. It looks great
