Default Long range tank.

I was chatting to a member here and he said he'd like a gas tank with a longer range. I remembered I'd made a few for the stealership here but they only took one and cancelled the other 2 because the mechanics there didn't know how to fit the tank.
Thought you'd like a few pics. I know we all love pics. This fits the stock frame and seat. I'm thinking I might use it on mommy's bike when I eventually build one for her. I guess it'd be neccessary if you only rode around in first.

BTW, the poor fit around the seat is because the seat was reworked.

Absolutely beautiful, Tauruck. I understand the desire for a longer range. I ran out of gas and had to push in the July heat. Once. I admire your skills, man. When you gonna post something in the Art & Photography thread?

Not sure what it is in gallons but I think it was 19 or 20 liters. I'll fill it and let you know.
