How do you get a dent out of a tank? Do you just bondo it or can you pull out as much as possible then bondo it? It's a decent size dent on the right side of the tank where the emblem is. Bout 4 inch's round and 1 1/2 to 2 inch deep. Any suggestions?????:huh:

I get them out by buying a new tank. I'm sure I'm in the minority though as I see all repainted bikes. Repainted=wrecked with dents filled with bondo. I guess that is the method to do bodywork for most.
321,000 miles on KZ's that I can remember. Not going to see any more.

you must live in real bad part of town,your bikes full of bullet holes!:laugh: if you have the ability to weld you might be able to tack some pins on there and pull a lot of that with a slide hammer it would take a little doing but it could be done .
