will a boss hoss tank fit?
they hold a lot of gas.
they also look super overcompensated too.
make my ***** feel better about the whole thing.

would it really be that hard to widen a stock tank 1 or 2 inches each side? handlbars and friends would still clear right? if they didn't different handlebars should fix any potential problems. electronics would be the same. lot of banging cutting and welding but I think that is fun.....

I would love to go 200 miles barely getting 130 now

I am the person who talked Don into building this tank and I am the one who sent my frame to Don (FATKAZ). ME. Tell me again about the proper link and also who sponsors your post. Do you think this is cheap to do? Another person on the internet telling all what he knows. Here is the link and here is the #. Like that bum *** brother in law who comes over, eats your food, drinks your beer than steals your change.

The pic in your sig, what is that and where is it? Looks pretty cool to ride into a cave.

I have read somewhere here on HDF of someone who has had his stock tank widened like that. I am working on fitting a recent 6 gallon tank and there is not very much spare room when on full lock! So I don't think a stock tank can be widened by very much.

A gallon is a 6" cube. Despite having my original 5 gallon tank alongside my 'new' 6 gallon one I can't see how Harley squeezed in that extra gallon! Getting in a second cube to make 7 gallons would take some imagination and work.

Cool bragging rights?

hey grumpy your posted link is a dead end. sorry I tried to do the right thing. can guarantee that never happening again. listen to this guy... "I know the guy that does stuff, I let him experiment with my bike" sorry I am only interested in hands on experience. you are not a hands on guy or you would have done it your self. I don't care about costs and sponsors and why you bring it up just shows me more of how much compensation you need. I just want more gas in my tank you however will be searching a for a life forever. keep your bragging at the bar.
