I think we all jumped to the conclusion this is for a Harley.. with the Budwiper there… I’m thinking this is a Can-Am gas tank. Maybe its a gas tank that doesn’t identify itself as a gas tank but believes it’s a Budwiper can. It identifies as transbender

Sorta like me… I’m a little fat, but I don’t identify with being fat, I’m transslender.

Maybe the gas tank partnered with Budwiper as part of an exclusive promotional add campaign to reach a demographic of Can-Am riders?

I'm thinkin' that you got all torqued up, in the heat of the moment, over someone's ( many ) opinion of a Rigid? ... If a vote were taken of all who've put some miles on a Rigid I think ( yep, I've been wrong before but I don't think so in this case ) the majority would differ with your statement regarding long distance comfort ... Many of the old timers who have had one are scratching their heads and thinking that the Rigid has taken it's toll on your noggin ( Humor ) ... I'm sure your scooter was nice and it served you well ... Ride safe !

Rigids …. When men were men and mothers were tougher. I’m 53, still have my Rigid. Been riding since I was 16.

Nighthawk S (80’s), 900RR (early 90’s), My current Rigid (early 90’s-present) Softail FXSTS (2022- present)

I put over 150,000 miles on my Rigid. I’ve built the bottom end Twice, I’ve built the Top end 4 times, been through two 3 5/8 jugs. Been through three sets of pistons.
First incarnation: 74”, sifton lifters, cast pistons sifton 440 cam
Second incarnation 93” 10.5:1 forged S&S pistons, ported dual plug stock heads, tried Redshift, 550, 580S, V-Thunder 4030, Sifton 119, v-Thunder 630, bandit cam ran 12 second ET’s
Third incarnation 93” 11.7:1 Forged S&S pistons, ported S&S single plug heads, Andrew’s S82, Andrew’s M grind, Lienweber cams.. 11:87 ET’s @112 mph

I stand behind my opinion, experience and reasonable observations.

Very nice work but I like mine better. It's a more practical.

Don't misunderstand my reply ... I wasn't calling you out ... I just commented on the "tone" of your reply ... I'll be starting on my 75th Trip Around The Sun soon and I've been on two wheels ( in one way or another ) since 1964 ... My experience with a rigid was limited to a Triumph a long time ago .. Ride safe

What I would really like to see is the finished tank and an actual running bike.

Now that would be interesting.
