Yep. Im actually thinking of building 2 fuel tanks. One infront of the carbs in the frame with the filler neck replacing the stock ignition placement, like a new buell, and the other being a chin fairing looking tank. I have to run a fuell pump anyway. Might as well get that weight lower and farther forward.  Ill make a CF or some other guard to protect it from rocks and other debris.  Tank will probably be from .050" aluminum.

By the way Trucker how's your knee? From the last photo you posted, looked like some massive inflammation going on. You're going to be able to ride this bike when finished, right?

Its there. I had a second reconstruction surgery.  I only get around 95 degrees of movement out of it right now.  The quad muscle is still about 80% gone and I have no strength to lift any more weight than my leg itself, but I can work a gear shifter.

To be honest I need a partial knee replacement. New patella and tendons. Patella is still in 2 seperate pieces joined by cadiver ligaments.  

Im going to build some adjustable rearsets that Hopefully I can set low enough to where I can ride.  I may have to compramise on cornering clearance slightly untill I regain more movement.  But thats good because it will keep my cornering speeds down for a while.
