I put a Road King tank on mine and Jack_650 put a Softail tank on his.

Check out these two threads. Eventually I will do a better job of describing how I mounted the tank and post it in the tech section.

This thread is a pictorial progression of the FireLizard after each mod I have performed.

I like thin. But would also like to be able to push 250 miles on a tank. I'm too lazy for dual fills so an auxillary or carry tank is out. Thinking about it I hit upon making the stock tank about 2 inches taller, and taking away the instrument well -- should be good for at least a gallon and a half, maybe two. I even have a $.99 tank to play with.
