Looking into other gas tank options. This is a highly modified 86 vt1100 tank but would like something more streamlined. Any ideas?

did you remove the original gas tank?

Yes, under the seat now is a 1/2 gallon air tank, compressor, C5 ignition and some other goodies.

My 83 gl1100 that went into surgery last January. Road King fairing, xs650 flat track seat, air ride, 94 something glide rear fender and semi truck led headlight in a dune buggy bucket.

You might get better response starting a build thread or asking questions in the tech section.

An intro thread would be good too.

I did an intro and wish I had documented more of my work I have done. It's about done now. Well done for now. My next build I will definitely do a build thread. Thanks for the advice.

Greetings! I am building a 1979 GL1000 rest- mod I guess.. Have 2010 ZX1400 forks, rim, brakes...I started awhile go but life got in the way but moving and gutting the new house gave me some time to think things through a bit. I'll be using the Randakk double webber fuel system. I haven't dived into that brain scrambler part yet but it's progressing. I was looking for a better suspension and brakes. Those carbs look bad -ss..so this is what I got so far.

I just acquired a well used 79 gl1000. I am going to go the cafe racer route with custom seat and bars and custom paint. its going to be a slow and steady project since I am getting old & slow nowdays.

I have most of a CC Products supercharger kit as well as several pieces of a Keith Wright kit I am installing on my 1976 GL1000. The bike has been stripped to the frame and slowly getting modified as time and resources allow.
