Title: What to do about my dented tank Post by: gh0stie on July 25, 2010, 04:53:43 PM I had a minor get-off this week which resulted in my tank being dented, can this be fixed or will I need to replace it? Open to suggestions and recommendations.
Thanks (https://lh5.ggpht.com/_o7rLJyMBDVo/TEpazCw-G7I/AAAAAAAAMhs/nORVR_0OAuA/s800/Duc%20Crash%201.jpg) (http://lh6.ggpht.com/_o7rLJyMBDVo/TEpcmL4fLwI/AAAAAAAAMh4/RtirZVBc_uU/s800/2010-07-23%2018.57.14.jpg) Title: Re: What to do about my dented tank Post by: badgalbetty on July 25, 2010, 05:05:00 PM its only sheet metal, it can be fixed unless you want a new one. They are expensive new.

I really thought about getting some metal rods and welding it to the tank and giving it a big yank. Would look cool with dimples (considering how my bike looks already!)
