RE: 2" Tank Lift before and after photos
I made my own too. Custom 2 5/8". Perfect tank angularity and look I was hoping to achieve. A little more than the 2" but not quite 3" which I thought starated to look odd on my '02Softail. I'm totally pleased with the outcome of my homemade version. All I had to do was remake my tank cross over hose that fits outside the front of my down tubes due to clearance and so as not to stress the tank fittings.
Total cost, time and material, about $15.00. Sure makes cleaning alot easier and the look is just whatthe doctor ordered. Don't have any before and afters, but I can send them via pm if anyone is interested.

RE: 2" Tank Lift before and after photos
I ordered Jackyl's 2"lift Thursday night, got it today at 2:45 and was complete at 3:10. I did have a little trouble with the overflo tube butI managed to get enough out of it to be ok. The only suggestion I can add is to make sure you turn your crossover line a bit so it doesn't hit the frame and wear thru and swap the rear seat acorn with the nylon nut Jackyl sends with the lift. And oh, cover your heads and tank before you start wrenching....scratches and dings suck.Before pics below and after pics on next post.

Does the SE filter plate have a place for the PCV's (or whatever they're called)?
