dyna tanks!!! Whats the hole for?? - 3/28/2008 4:04:02 PM    Bradley Jones Posts: 1183 Joined: 4/18/2007 From: Mill City Mass. Status: offline I am trying to swap out my peanut tank for a fat bob tank and I recently got one but my question is the giant hole on the top of the tank between the fuel caps, after I buy a tank console and figure out how to mount my speedo what goes in between the speedo and the open tank?? Is there a giant gasket or something? Yeah your probably laughing right now but I'm serious I never owned any big twin or a tank off of one and I'm clueless. haha. Even my metric bikes that had tank consoles never had this opening. Anyone wana give me a quick lesson please. thanks Brad P.S. This might not pertain to this section but I figured what the hell _____________________________ Chrome don''t get ya home!!! Post #: 1

I thought it went in the bottom. Well my bike is fuel injected so thats why I went with the 08 fatbob. _____________________________ Chrome don''t get ya home!!! (in reply to bobcowan) Post #: 3
