It's almost done. That's my tank base on the right. The tank being made for the bike is on the left.

I think I agree! :D

As for seeing it on the bike, in time. The tail piece isn't finished and polished yet. ;)

Not too much time! ;) I'm leaving it up to a professional tank maker to pund these out of aluminum. He's a pro with english wheels/plannishing hammers/body hammers. I'm, well.... not. :D

As for what to pay to duplicate it... plan on investing a minimum of $1100.00 for a tank and seat. :pinch:
