Default Fuel Tank question

I'm collecting parts for my MM to carb swap and came across a carbureted tank from an 05 that I'm wondering if it will fit on my 99 road king? Thanks in advance

don't know myself, but looking at the 05 carb bikes, the part number for the tank is an 03.

so it may or may not fit...possible you can do a test fit.

otherwise you are really just looking at plugging a hole and adding a petcock

Further to Mike's point, you can get a petcock conversion from Pingel for your current tank, which includes the necessary blanking plug. Why do you want a different tank?
