Introducing the Dished Wassell Motorcycle Gas Tank, a premium choice for motorcycle enthusiasts and custom bike builders. This gas tank stands out with its classic peanut style, reminiscent of the sixties show bikes, making it not only functional but also a stylish addition to your ride. With a generous capacity of 2.1 gallons, this tank ensures that you can ride longer without frequent stops for refueling.

The dimensions of the tank are 14.5 inches long, 9 inches wide, and 7.5 inches tall, offering a compact yet spacious design. The innovative mid-mount tunnel design features un-drilled mounting tabs, providing a universal fit that is easy to customize for your specific bike model. Measuring 17 inches from tab to tab, with a tunnel depth of 3.5 inches and a width of 2.15 inches, this tank is engineered to fit seamlessly into your motorcycle frame.

One of the standout features of this tank is its construction quality. Unlike many other tanks on the market, which may be made in China, the Dished Wassell tank is crafted with excellent quality materials to ensure durability and performance. The tank is pressure tested, giving you peace of mind that it can handle the demands of the open road.

The recessed dishing of the tank perfectly matches its outer lines, formed during the stamping process. This meticulous craftsmanship results in smooth edges, eliminating concerns about cracking at weld seams that could occur with other tanks that are welded back together. Additionally, this design allows for easier preparation before painting, saving you time and effort in your custom build project.

Installation is straightforward, but it’s essential to ensure that the fit of the tank, mounting hardware, petcocks, and gas caps are accurate before painting. To prevent any stress on the tabs while bolting them to the frame, it’s advisable to use leather or rubber washers as shims between the tabs and the backbone. This ensures an even fit and minimizes the risk of cracks.

For added convenience, the Dished Wassell tank is equipped with two 1/4 inch NPT petcock bungs, giving you flexibility in fuel line configuration. Whether you’re building a Harley Sportster Bobber or a custom chopper, this gas tank is designed to meet the needs of serious bike builders.

In conclusion, the Dished Wassell Motorcycle Gas Tank is an excellent choice for those looking to enhance their motorcycle’s performance and aesthetic. Its combination of quality craftsmanship, stylish design, and practical features make it a must-have for any serious motorcycle builder.
