    Dished out tank

    Been toying with the idea "dishing out" my tank. I figure since it is already off bike and want to find some aftermarket gas caps instead of squared one, has anyone done this to their GS's? Have a 82 GS1100GL. If anyone has, do you have any pics?

    Thanks

    Yes, it has been done, but why would you want to?

    You are starting with a small-ish tank, and you want to make it smaller?

    Fortunately, you are starting with one of the larger "small" tanks, so you do have a little bit of room to play with.

      It's more of a cosmetic/appearance thing. I have a V star 1100 for them longer hauls. lol.
