I just got a new tank off ebay so I can redo my dent. Post some pics up of your dent so I can get some ideas. I had the dent way in the back on my f4i but I think I wanna go more forward with the new tank. Post some pics up.... thanks...

 

Do a search in the how to forum. If you take your time and use proper metal working methods it will come out fine. If you can't do it take it to someone who can.

 

Yeah, I tried that. It wouldnt bring up anything.... otherwise I wouldnt have posted. Im gonna do it, I just want some ideas first.

 

Here's how I did my f4i:
Took a deadblow plastic mallet and a 5# brass mallet. Placed the deadblow on the tank and hit it with the brass mallet. After about 5 minutes I got pissed and started beating the hell out of it. I worked from right behind the gas tank and kept denting down until I got a nice *** groove. I hopped up on the tank and realized by fat *** didn't fit in the groove so I worked the metal to widen up the dent. A little thinking aboutwhat yo uwant and how to work the metal goes a long way.

 

Yeah, I just found a thread.... Im gonna do a dent where the gas cap is in the middle of the dent. I want a nice lip in the back to hold me in there.

 

Start right on the back edge of the gas cap and work it down/out from there.

 

Griptape.

 

holy crap did i butcher one last night. never did one so bad, but it had a big dent to start that thru everything off.

 

i like this tank just dont know how im going to put it on my bike yet.

Here was mine, but got shitty in a few months cuz jumped on it too much, covered it with some cement (or mastic don't know how you call it) and was too hard, gonna put some plastic fiber on the next one so that it holds better !
