Hi Slowride!
Nice bike!
Is someone building tanks like yours?
I wouldn`t mind a bit more range between fuel stops.
Cheers.Wikur!

Ray Randolph built this particular tank but sadly he is no longer with us. I found this old link advertising his work and the pictures verified for me that he did make mine.

For what it is worth, I saw one of those tanks for sale on craigslist.org in the detroit michigan area within the last month or so.
