    sportster specialtys in the states do them, for about 200 ish for a raw steel tank. You'll need to seal the inside for peace of mind, and spray it then bolt up all your existing pump gear etc.

    checked out add for tank but its a denim ,as i was chasing a gloss black which i thought would

    match the gloss black guards better. just a matter of taste tho. ive ended up ordering a tank from my

    dealer in albany in wa ,gave me agreat deal.will get it fitted next service.cant come soon enough as i nearly run out

    of fuel on a run this weekend,150,ks and  .7 of a litre left. got to love country towns that close on sundays.

    any way. cheers for help everyone
