I just done some graphics on a friend of mines tank, he bought the tank used and did realize it was for a fuel injected bike. His is a Carbed softail.. is there any way to convert this tank? from injection to carb fittings?

Check Drag Specialties they make a conversion set up for this. Is it the one or two hole tank?

Savage- when you applied the silver leaf, did you have to remove the factory pinstripe first or did you just apply over it?  Gave me an idea on my 09 UC, Fire blue pearl with baby blue pinstripe. 

Great work!!

Thanks guys!  as for mzodarg , Yes I applied the leaf over the existing pinstripes.. I was going to do the fender graphics a only and the side logo in the combination of leafs.. but then UPS gave us a free dent.. So I reached in the tank (guts were out) and tapped it out then came up with plan B.. Feel free to give me a call 530-370-6266. Here is some more stuff..   www.signspeeweedesigns.com  Ricinflorida, You the man! that looks like what he needs.. Looks like he will be send me ( er you,LOL) some Halibut!

Depends on the year the tank was made. All the tanks are the same now days, female threads in the tank; FI quick connect threads directly into the tank, carb models need a coupling to thread into the tank and the petcock threads onto the coupling.

The set up Ric posted is the one for the 2 hole tank and then Harley and drag both have a conversion bung that just screws in the tank for the single hole tank.
