Guys, please read the written description before any questions! Thank you!
MY MISTAKE GUYS, THE TANK WAS NOT PURCHASED FROM JPCYCLES.COM. IT WAS PURCHASED FROM HERE: goo.gl/DeZM1v
The brake light was purchased from the dealer.
Drag bars and the gas tank cap were purchased from ebay.

The gas tank makes a huge difference in not having to always stop and fill up. The V&H exhaust really makes this a beast. 2 thumbs up

I've been dreaming of a 48 with a larger fuel tank, drag bars and,...well...basically EXACTLY how you've set yours up. Very smart upgrades and mods. Very tasteful and well thought out. I'm going to build one very similar to this. Thanks for the great demo on your bike.

I just bought a 48 & a 4.5 gal tank. I put "Hollywood" bars on mine. Iam using Vance & Hines Long Shots without the baffles. It is my dream bike......I love the look, I love the power, the sound and now that I have the rear suspension "dailed" in...the ride is great. Thanks Frank....Your 48 inspired my build. Everyone who looks at it falls in love with it. The big tank and Hollywood bar combo completely change the look and many people dont recognize that it is a sportster.

Hey Frank just wanted to say thanks for posting this video. Because of your vid, I bought this tank for my 48 and I love it. J&P should be giving you a % of the sales. For anyone interested; with the 2.1 Peanut tank the low fuel light came on after about 60-70 miles. Now (depending on how I ride) it's about 130-150 miles. It was on back order for a while so I got on the email list and as soon as it was available I bought it and I've never regretted it. It looks amazing. Thx again Frank.

@CyclopsRevolution
@CyclopsRevolution 9 лет назад
Edgar Olivo I'm not sure if that tank is still available. You may be able to get it from HD. No mods were needed. It did have to be prepped and painted though.
@CyclopsRevolution
@CyclopsRevolution 9 лет назад
With the stock bars the mirrors will hit the tank so you have two options. 1) Put the mirrors on top 2) Angle the bars forward and rotate the hand controls so the mirrors can be useful. I angled the bars forward and it actually improved the view with the mirrors. However you are forced to lean forward. I'm planning on getting RSD Short stack bars to eliminate the lean.
@CyclopsRevolution
@CyclopsRevolution 9 лет назад
gordon geary The ones in this video are drag bars and I'm not sure where he got them but I think he did mention that they hit the tank. There are risers available for the Forty eight and they may eliminate the problem. There is also a triple tree from Roland Sands for the forty Eight that give you the option to mount regular risers. I was thinking of trying them out as well.

However HD UK want to put this tank on for me: accessories.harley-davidson.eu/product/62999-07/sportster-large-tank-installation-kit-not-shown, as opposed to the JP cycles www.jpcycles.com/product/721-159 one. I really like the look of yours and @alanbarbs one, are you able to give me the measurements for comparative purposes? I like the shallow and fat muscular look of yours and Alan's, but can't not sure how this HD tank will look that they are proposing! Strange request, but thanks in advance if you can help!
