Bobber Elec. Tank (PICS)
02/04/12 at 09:50:07
 
Hey all, weekends here, my materials arrived this week so its time to finish my fake oil tank. I was going to buy this kit from TC bros. for 75.00 bucks, which is a good deal, however I saw one up close and there is a couple things I did not like. The diameter was a little small for my taste and the
welded bungs wont fit between the frame rails limiting mounting options.



I decided to spend the money on materials and build one.

This bike is set-up for a swingarm mounted battery, the tank will hold elec. with room to spare.

Im building a tank/battery combo for a customer, I will post some pics when I get it mocked up

Yup, there she be.  I bumped mine to the right side first chance I got; just feels better to me.  To each their own, though.  Lookin' pretty tight.  Keep up the good fab work!
