Nothing made for it but plenty of people have fenagled their own adaptations from sportster peanut tanks to giant Road King tanks.

is that a wrench acting as a hard tail strut mock in that second photo? I had a RCA puppy moment looking at the screen at that. I'd love a peanut tank but my welding skills are far from par.

Anyone have a pic of a 4 or 5 gallon harley tank mounted on a late model S40. I have a 2007 S40 and would like a bigger fuel capacity and am split between having the current tank modified or using something like a hd roadking tank or fatboy tank...

I believe those tanks are about 9 gals.

Also look up a VN750 tank, they are about 4.5 gals and have a gas gage.
