I'm looking for a Fatbob style fuel tank for my Trike. Doesn't have to be H.D. just that basic design. would prefer a 3.5 to 4 gallon. Doesn't even have to be cherry, just not wrecked. But beggers can't be choosers. I'm willing to pay a reasonable price plus shipping as long as it's less than what they go for on Ebay. $50.00 or so. Triker Red I'll call some of the guys I worked with tomorrow Red.......but don't get your hopes up.....when I wanted some, my FREINDS were gonna hit me up for half retail on useded, slightly damaged tanks......I bought new from J&P for less than they wanted for one side! But I'll check around just the same......maybe one of 'em has some back alimony to pay or something Gotta catch these guys around here when they're down and out/////lmao!

Sorry Red, I called 5 guys, and nobody has anything right now, and the 2 that would talk turkey....I think were on he "road kill menu!" $400.00 for the PRIVLEDGE, as I was told to get a GENUINE set of used, damaged H-D tanks has been the going price in our area for the past 2 years.....Yeah right! J&P Cycles for less tha 2 bills NEW!
Anyway, sorry man.....check with Skull, he's got some.

Kliff, your trike is looking great man !!! What are ya going to do with the flatbed thingy ? Rails around the sides and rear ? Just to be onry, I was going to say " I especially love the built in picnic table" hahaha !!! so fill me in bro... That sucker looks good !!! Lets go riding !!! Well, the "pic nik" table, is actually a weird piece of plywood....it's almost 1 and 1/4" thick, and is about 15 plies! It is a great looking piece of Birch vernier, that is used as "cartage" in Europe......yeah, PALLET material! I got it from a freind severral years back when he worked for a flooring importer. It was marked as made in Finland. That little piece of plywood is so dense it weighs almost 45lbs !!!! But...it is going to have some 1/4" high 1" wide Red Oak "rub strips" attached to the top surface, and some boat cleats for fastenning loads....mainly my 102qt cooler, which will be the "travel trunk" for vacation rides, etc. Not really planning on side rails, but ya never know. Besides, IF I add rails....the picnic table is lost...LMAO! Glad ya like it so far........I hope it looks better once I start spraying some color.

Kiff. I have some door handles that would look great on your deck on the rear. Similar to boat cleats but about 12 in. long and stand on two pedestals about 2 in. tall. Long piece is gently tapered down on each end and pedestals have about a 1in. base and look funnel shaped as they taper up. Got 'em in stainless(heavy!) and aluminum. If you'll send me your email address and I can get my digital camera program reloaded. I'll send ya some pic's and we'll talk about it. Serious... they would look great and would act as a rail without being too much Bling! Triker Red Email with addies headed your way man! Thanks.
