Thats a lot of fuel, apx. 25%.. but if it's primarily your stunt bike it's not that big of a deal i geuss?
Street or highway may be a little bit of a pain in the ass having to stop more often..

OK, new salvaged bike. 02 F4i

So here goes a new one.
Before:

I got my dent done and I'm in the middle of bondo now. this is just a teaser.

Question: Would you guys have pulled out that crotch dent or just bondoed it up?

jstuntlocke · 06-01-2008, 11:58 PM

How's that for a progression pic. Did I do it right? haha Prolly not.

I just bondoed that crotch dent.....

REVLIMIT · 06-02-2008, 03:33 AM

Damn I want to dent my tank...but ehh still concentrating on slowly down my SS for now..

jstuntlocke · 06-10-2008, 08:25 PM

OK I'm done with the tank for now and this thread is dead.

I'm not trying to make it perfect... just stuntable. I wanted to be able to have the ability to change it or make it better in the future. ie, paint, deeper dish, more bondo smoothness, ect.

But I took it from this....

To this...

REVLIMIT · 06-15-2008, 06:45 AM

Do you guys all start with the jumping on the tank technique? or do you all just go straight hammer?

atnuts · 06-15-2008, 12:34 PM

hey jstuntlocke, I'm guessing the part I circled in this pic had a crack? and what did you use to patch it? is that just bondo? also, did you use a phonebook or just straight hammer to tank? which hammer did you use? post pic, thanks

I just start with a deadblow hammer and try to not dig in a corner cuz it's like octagon shaped.... If you can find a round one I think it would be better.. then I used a ball peen hammer to fix spots if I catch a corner of the deadblow, and towards the lip some too....

I've seen a ton of people start them by jumpin on them.. I don't like it cuz I can't be accurate like that I feel, and also I'm usually alone doin my dents too.
others may have diff opinions on what works for them...

atnuts · 06-18-2008, 08:23 PM

just finished my dent. came out decent. just gotta test it out for leaks around the cap and bondo it.
