    Glass Gas Tank.....

    now you never have to wonder how much gas you have, what's in the tank, is it full of something other than gas......

      Cool, you'd be able to see the heat swirls in the fuel as the engine heats up.

      Don't say can't, as anything is possible with time and effort, but, if you don't have time things get tougher and require more effort.

        And it would be so hard to repair dents!

          Capacity looks to be barely a gallon. That should be good for a small Hollywood fireball if it got spilled and ignited.

          Once could conceivably coat it in a clear urethane to protect it. It could be wrapped in polycarbonate if not for the very compound curvature.

          Eh. It's a show bike that will probably never be ridden more than a couple dozen miles at a time.

            At least you could see our "summer blend" ethanol mixture gasoline separate out while it's sitting.....

              I recall someone posting that on here a year or so ago. How did you come across it this time? Thinking of modding the FZ?

              It looks like it would fit right in on a steampunk mod, but by and large, that's a showroom-only piece.

                LOL,,,,no plans on using it on the FZ......

                I saw it posted on another forum, I don't recall it being on here, so I stuck it.....here...

                I just thought it would generate some discussion.....

                I'll stick to the metal tank for the FZ, Spyug has done a great job hiding all the little dents......
