If tanks had souls... Your place would be one of the most haunted around...

haha hah everybody knows hondas have no soul. besides Nobody is gonna miss this crap and Ebay still lets me make low ball offers on stuff.

Thoughts? Im 50/50 in this oil tank

 

[stroker crazy]

Looks good, but it depends somewhat on where you go with the seat and rear fender.

You are going to have a seat and fender, aren't you?

If in doubt, don't commit!

I have a t500 rear fender for sure and at somepoint ill get a seat

I like the look of that oil tank brad.

Do you have one, or something to look like one on the other side too?

 

[Floegstad]

I like the oiltank design
With that awesome stance its not a bad place to add the weight for fluids.
Are u thinking about having fuel on one side to get less weight ontop of the bike, or u might need it to have your frontwheel on the ground..... 8)
But u are a 2-stroker Mr-B and guess u like it when the frontwheel kisses the sky.
Really enjoying your fearless builds.
Wishing i was allowed to build streetbikes the way u do in the US.
KEEP UP YOUR ONE OF A KIND BUILDS!!
Cheers Jorgen

Hmm, I thought this was shaped like a carby float. A tank either side of the frame with a bit of sheet between the two as an inner guard, but then my mind does tend to see things that it doesn't later.

I think it looks great but needs another on the other side, you could use it as a tool box or a reserve tank.

 

[VonYinzer]

I like it

 

[Maritime]

I like it and agree another on the other side for storage, or such would be cool, even Brodie's idea of connecting then to form the lower half of the fender would be cool.

 

[stroker crazy]

To be contrary, I don't think you want another one on the other side, as appealing as the idea of incorporating the fender may be.

It will be visually balanced by the chain run, which another container would probably interfere with.

Symmetry is over-rated anyway!

This does make sense when you say it. LOL

Ha, that's what I did on my chop.

I really dig it, Brad. Make it so.

Looks like the tool boxes on my Enfield. Approve.

 

[Rich Ard]

Looks like the tool boxes on my Enfield. Approve.

And that was when Brad cut that bitch in half.

Had the same thought... But as Rich stated, I knew ant reference to a Brit bike meant certain death for that oil tank.

 

[JustinLonghorn]

When the idea was being hatched, I mentioned the toolboxes on vintage bikes, of course I referenced Harleys, not Brits.

 

[AgentX]

You guys sound like I said that to be encouraging or something...
