I had a difficult time deciding what to do for my fuel tank.
After pricing several options and originally re-manufacturing my original tank only to have issues with ethanol and immediate liner deterioration I settled on a custom built tank.
I wanted to post this for those of you on a budget and looking for a NICE, option to consider.
This tank was custom built to my specs, it has the pickup and vent line fittings for a nice clean install and receives the VDO sending unit for use with the stock gauge. The original strapping was used to install the tank too.
I added a bracket on the front for remote mounting of my 911 brake fluid reservoirs. The custom bracket on the tank allows the custom dual reservoir bracket added in a clean way as well.
The beauty of this option is the cost. I saw many tanks with these types of options well in to the thousands. This complete tank with custom brackets, 911 M/C, lid and hoses was all under $1000 (at the time). There are different cap options too such as the pop-up version.
Since I consider my Outlaw mild I also kept the interior looking original for the petcock valve.
I am not selling these, but will help members get in contact with someone who does if you send me an e-mail. I hope this is not deleted as an ad, because I am not selling but would help a member locate one if in need for their chariot.
