Dished Wassell Peanut Mid-Tunnel Gas Tank – 2.0 Gal

Nothing changes the look of your hand-built custom motorcycle like a new bobber gas tank. The Cycle Standard Dished Gas Tank is a 2.0-gallon chopper gas tank based on the old Wassell peanut gas tanks available for custom bikes in the 1950’s – 70’s, BUT with the addition of dished sides for that extra touch of class. The Mid-Tunnel Peanut Tank has a tunnel that runs about midway through the gas tank, bringing your gas tank higher off the backbone than the Original (deep tunnel) version. – Mid-Tunnel, tunnel runs midway through the gas tank

This Dished Peanut Tank is intended for use on custom motorcycles, be it a bobber, chopper, cafe racer, vintage motorcycle or fresh off the showroom floor. This gas tank features two 1/4″ NPT petcock bungs and undrilled mounting tabs for custom installation, and will accept a Harley-Davidson Cam Style gas cap (not included). Most people drill holes in the backbone of their frame, weld some blind threaded tophat bungs in place, and bolt the tank down using some leather washers to cushion between the gas tank tabs and the frame. Note: It is highly recommended to fit your gas tank to your bike before painting. Check for clearance or mounting issues as different combinations of triple trees, risers, and handlebars may cause clearance issues when turning. Tanks are pressure tested but it is highly recommended that you or your painter pressure test it again before painting; it’s cheap insurance!
