not a fan of the bottle at all

 

Hey snacks,

ehh... i figured some people may like it and others may not. It was something that i figured would help me out in the future rather than buying a bigger tank. I feel that it makes my bike more "ME". Yeah i could buy a bunch of stuff that everyone has or something someones already made but this was something i thought would be cool and if you don't like it its all good man. To each his own right?

 

Hey Mumeral,
Thanks for the feedback. I'll def. look into what you said. Yeah I used zip ties for a rough install just to see how it looked and see what comments i would get. I figured i could perfect it later, your idea sounds more logical than mine does lol.

I was thinking in the future i could upgrade the bottle or something and maybe cut it near the top and add threads some how so that i could use it as a storage and what not, like insurance insurance cards, glasses, gloves, ear plugs misc. stuff like that. thanks a lot and im glad i could give you some ideas for your bike.

Thanks ironpony,

I'm glad there are people out there that liked my idea. I figured i'd get some people that would knock on my idea with the bottle. Thanks a lot for the feedback and let me know if you need any more help with that coil relocation.

 

The gas bottles a great idea and looks awesome.....just would make me a little nervous from a safety standpoint if god forbid someone were to pull out in front of you and you had to lay it down on that side. It would totally suck to possibly burn you and/or your bike up verses some scratches...still a great looking bike.

 

The extra fuel would be nice for sure. Never know. Cool idea.

 

Thanks for the comment hoffman,

Yeah i was thinking about safety issues like this last night while i was just sitting and looking at my bike. I came up with some other outcomes.
- I could leave it empty during times when i am riding within like stop and go places like the city and such
- Or i could use it as a storage like cut near the top of the bottle where its still at its widest point and add threading in the inside some how that way i can use it as a storage or something. Like putting small misc. stuff.
- I was quite nervous at first of gas maybe eating through the plastic top but it has a rubber sealer around it. But I am going to go to home depot today to see if i can find like a metal or stainless steel top for it just in case

 

looks great!!! i like the look of the raised tank, i may do that... what kind of paint did you use to spray the engine and covers??

 

Those fire extinguisher brackets aren't made to hold weight in that position. It looks neat, but it's dangerous. Someone makes a plastic bracket that allows the extinguisher to snap into place and is sort of vibration-proof. I haven't seen one in a while, but you should try to find one.

 

Hey Guys here are some new pics i took today.
- I put new pipes on today Vance and Hines Short. I got em for $100 barely used

 

Nice photographic composition on the bike!
