Thats cool how you've mounted the tank. Is it the original tank from the bike just turned over and set back?

Parts sales contest when I worked for BMW. 2002 Q6.s folding mountain bike

As I first got it New bars, grips, rear hub, stainless spokes, tires, removed rack And new seat with matching grips. I'm thinking I'm done now

Real Steel. 1974 Murray Alpine. 5 Speed, top tube shifter. Rode it home from the store in 1974 and over 3500 miles since then.

Early 1967 Rail. I wanted to be able to comfortably ride it being as I'm a bit taller than when I was 12. Added new apes, new sissy bar, new seat. Collectors, don't panic. All the OG parts are safely put away.

I have the straight tank model. At the rear of the tank, welded to the frame, is a steel tab that looks just like an automotive front end alignment shim, just narrower and thinner. The pronged end faces forward and slides into a corresponding slot in the rear of the tank.

Ive changed the look of this bike so many times over the last eight years....

A little update, new saddle and matching grips...

Flying O, Foremost....

No tire rub, but had to very painstakingly fit everything to clear. I've fit a lot of these older bikes that came with 1.75 tires with 2.125's, and you've just got to make sure everything lines up, wheels must be round AND true. I also hang it it my stand it a way that helps with each tire/wheel...
