Default 04-11 Tank on a 03

What modifications would need to be done to get this tank fitted on my 03? Or would I be better off finding someone to dish the sides of my current tank in the same fashion?
I really like the tank on the Darwin Brawler( http://www.bikeexif.com/wp-content/u...in-brawler.jpg ) but I have to imagine that the metalwork needed to get a tank to look like that is going to be out of my budget.

It would have to be an 04 to 06 tank because 07 and newer are fuel injected. I think the front might bolt up but I think the rear mount is in a different location, you would also have seat fitment problems unless you are going with a spring seat or something else.

Check with J&P Cycles, I think they offer a dished tank for that era, although it will need painted.
