Dyna Gas Tank
I recently (yesterday) scooped up a 97 Lowrider that was dropped on the brake side, slamming the tank pretty hard.
Tank needs to be replaced but ive been finding that this year style tank is either very hard to find used or pretty expensive.
So the question is, whats the difference, if any, between the softail tank (84-99) and the tank on this 97 dyna? Most of my concern is basically related to if it will fit without needing any modifications.
Thanks in advance for any help

Thanks for the info.
There are some aftermarket tanks but they're in that 300 range. If I didn't pay like 1500 for it I'd jump on an aftermarket but I'm just trying to bring this bike back to stock at a reasonable price.
Something tells me if I want it on the road in a few weeks I'll have to go the aftermarket route.

Frankly, you can make any tank work. It's a matter of time and money:
If you don't have much time, you're going to spend more money.

Shiiiit.
You guys are great.
Thanks for the schematic. Thanks for pointing out that classifieds tank.
Its a carbed model, im pretty hands on with everything so im not really concerned with having to spend money, making fit wouldnt be an issue.
End of the day I think I want to bring it back up to stock for at least the upcoming season.
Thanks!
