[Misguided]

New guy here, 2nd time Harley Owner, first was a 1980 Roadster that I bought new in 1980. Sold it in 83 and regretted ever since. Just bought this new XL883C. Got a diamond back seat and diamond back tail on order for it. Next will be a bobtail fender, then a strtch gas tank. Anyone put a stretch tank on theirs?

IT FEELS SO GOOD TO BE BACK ON A HARLEY

Nice looking bike!

I was about to tell ya: 'sorry, no experience with a stretched tank. And I started thinking....l know that's dangerous! I remembered a recent article I saw.


In the May 2002 issue of American Iron Magazine there is a 4 page article about a customized Sportster, with a stretched tank. The tech sheet described the tank as a "Fat Katz stretched". The bike (albeit a 1200) looks pretty cool with the stretched tank. Hope this helps.

The current issue of Hot Bike also has an article on a Sportster with a stretched tank.... Pretty rare for them, they oughta be called "Hot Softail Kits..."
