FBI MAKES A 5.5GAL.

 

I totally agree - I have to stop at 250 -175 miles nyway - spend the money on the IDS

 

Even though you might stop for folks with smaller tanks it would be nice to not have to get gas each time. I could see where you might go about 150 miles, not get gas, go another 100 or so and get gas only once.

 

RWD makes a 6 gallon tank for touring bikes. You'll need their seat too or have a custom seat made. I'm using one of the tanks for a custom bagger I'm building. Quality is great, cost about $1000. Body work is minimal. Paint for mine (black with a custom logo airbrushed was $1200 and included the body work). Body cost was probably about $300 worth of the paint job. The console that comes with the tank needs to be chromed, $125.00. A 1/8 in NPT fuel crossover hose is required, about $95.00. Custom gas cap from Drag specialties, $35.00. Stock fuel pump fits fine. Seat, $400 (it's ok for the rider, not good for a passenger). I had a seat modified for mine, came out to $600 total. Total, $3005 (parts only). you do the work....

 

There is a guy who does all the local bike shows. He has a nice heritage, decked out with a total skull theme. He has a 7 gal. tank on his bike. It isn't stretched, either. Just really fat. Heck, I like it, a lot. Being a fat guy, I am always looking to make my bike more fat. I asked him where he bought it, and he told me he couldn't remember the name of the guy. Oh well, it sure does look sweet. IMO.

 

Bump
