this isn't likely to get a big response because i know that they aren't very popular right now, but does anyone know who might make a round oil tank for an '05 softail?

thanks...

That link doesn't look too bad. I wouldn't say they're not popular, I just have never seen them before.

I've bought 2 oil tanks from Fausto at MotoXCycle. The one I have been running on my Train and one for my project bike. His work is excellent. My powdercoater didn't want to cover the work Fausto did!

Since my bike is fuel injected, I had to space it forward about an inch for all the electronic cables to fit. Also had to make a longer battery to starter cable. No worries with either tho.
