Where did you get that tank? Did you have to modify the stock mounts for the tank? I want that tank! Tank...! =P~ I like the paint job I've done on mine...but the tank is the stock one....looks too bulky for my application.

Also...did you modify that back end to be a rigid? Did you lower the rear end to do this? God I love that bike.....it's exactly the way I've been trying to customize my GS 650 GL.

It's a Harley-Davidson Sportster tank :twisted: you have to modify the mounts, the front ones for sure. And it holds 8.5 liters...at most.
 
by the way...wheres the air box on that bike? Seems to be missing.

i bought this from a retired racer he did most his self he bought the bike new went to the dealer and stripped it down he had it race ready through the winter.i have just been doing odd and ends to it the way i like to see one. it came be street leagal with lights and blinkers but the cops still look hard.im planning on racing the season on a 1/8 mile track local they are going to have saturday night races if you stay in front all night they say it will be a 3000.00 purse.... and all season points leader is going to be 30.000 sound good to me.there is no fast bike over there. i think the fastest was a 01 ri yamaha pulling low 7"s i think i can take him he live a miles from me.he said i make him nerveos when he hears my bike start you can feel the thump in your gut..

i know how that is at least there is no harley fans closer around me this is rice country...
 
Here is mine as it sits. I want to lower the rear end a bit, get rid of the shocks and put bars in their place like yours. The turn signals need to be updated to a newer style. Rather than sticking out 6 inches and looing like aircraft wings....go with a bullet style from JCWhitney. I would like to change the tank...now I know that I can. Obviously the rest of the engine needs to go back on....(head is off for valve job) The bars are stock....I already re-shaped and re-apulstered (sp) the seat. Paint is obviously redone....my girlfriend wants me to add some other design to the tank...but I like it the way it is.

first think throw the handle bars away and get some straight ones. i can see this bike looking great with the parts you are talking about. turn signals im buying some small ones on ebay they are black and about 2 inches long complete about 35.00 a set to.
 
good idea about the bars...got any suggestions about where to go....value vs. price.?
 
bars

bars

ebay you can allways find them for about 10.00 to 30.00 i just sold a set of chrome one for 30.00 i can buy a tank for a harley from a guy the next town over for 40.00
 
Gotta save some money up for a welder before I do the tank swapping. I have 1 year welding experience at the vocational school in high school...(could take that in place of 4 high school credits) So I know I could do it....just gotta get one.
 
Im looking for a stock exhaust for a 78 1000E. Anyone have one they want to get rid of?
