Roughly 9.5'' wide (at widest part), 20'' long, 8.5'' tall (at the tallest part towards the front). Again, these are rough measurements.

Hope this helps.

thanks motordrum...that black mamba got the style i'm looking for...the deal is i've got a 07 nightrain and love the look of the thinner fuel tank with low handle bars...just measured mine (roughly) to width 18 x height 9.5 x 21 long...so my concern of the it look too small is gone...now i'll investigate about speedo relocation and most important fuel pump/presure...

thanks again...and opinions are most welcome...
