Duece tank lift with Chubby Wild 1 W0560?
Like the title says. Anyone tried it? Bars are on their way and wonder how much lift can be gained? I'll see when I install but don't know how long that will be. Also, do you think there might be a way to get in the tank and fix the fuel access loss by moving hoses around or something? Does it have hoses? Even though gauge is inaccurate i wonder if anything can be done about it also?

Like Village Idiot said, if you use stock risers, you will need a spacer if you want to go with a 3" lift. You can go with a 2" lift with stock risers and have no clearance issues. Since you are going with apes, you should be fine on clearance. The best way to tell is to start with the riser/bar setup you will be using, then unbolt the front tank bolt and remove it. Then, loosen (but do not remove) the nut holding down the back of the tank. Now, you can raise the front of the tank to the height you plan to go with and turn the bars all the way left and right and make sure that nothing will hit the tank. You can use a thick folded towel to prop up the tank while you are turning the bars if you don't have a helper.
Hope this helps.

Good towel tip. The W0560's are drags with welded risers. Check them here. There's seems to be two different rise measurements on their site. One says 4" and one says 5". On a deuce they require an adapter as in here. This is to protect the triple tree but it looks like it will provide a small amount of lift. Guess we'll see. No one has any ideas about the fuel loss and gauge issue?
