For some reason, my response was removed from the thread in which I originally bought my tank in the swap section.
In any regards, this tank is fucking gorgeous beyond belief. As soon as I get my '49 closer, I'll post some pics on the main board...hopefully those won't get deleted as well.
New line of tanks and brackets coming out late January, we wanted to offer more options and lower cost units with the same great quality of our other tanks.
Started a thread the other day about 1" solid alumiunum handlebars. I'd like to bend some for my project. I have a bender that can bend these no problem, but I would have to tool it up. Wondering if there would be any interest out there if I were to offer 1" solid aluminum bars. If there is enough interest I would pop for the tools. Any thoughts?
I may have to add a little for shipping if a guy ordered apes or something odd shaped.
(Sold) Never used, pressure tested and functional vertical ribbed aluminum oil tank. Tank measures 5" x 10.25" x .125" thick and holds 3.0 qt's of oil and about .25-.5 qts of air. When welding the two tank halves together, they moved on me causing about a .060" misalignment. Not real noticeable unless your looking for it, but not good enough to sell full price. Looking for $150.00 shipped to the continental US or $180.00 shipped anywhere else.
1" solid aluminum drag bars. 24.5" wide, 4.5" pullback, and 6" of knurl. Stronger and lighter than 1" x .120 steel bars and require no finishing. JJ members $30 plus shipping.
A little press from Back Street Hero's out of Europe. Phil Piper of Choppershack (www.choppershack.com) built the Trump. Super nice guy who builds some killer shit. Phil went with yer standard VBOT-2.5 (2.5 qt vertical beehive).
Dan does some super nice work and is a stand up guy to boot, he helped support our first shop party this summer, the Lowbrow Customs Backyard Beer Brawl with an oil tank and some brass moon tank mounts that he whipped together on short notice and donated for the raffle!
Hey Dan, nice that you got your tank on that cover shot, looking good
4 qt. Spun Aluminum Oil Tank $260 shipped to the lower 48
Durable .125" thick x 5.125" diameter x 11.5" long spun aluminum oil tank with .125" thick stainless mount brackets and screw on oil cap for $255 plus shipping.
This is a nice alternative to a Moon tank. Same oil capacity, a thicker more dent resistant tank, more durable stainless brackets for $50 less.
Triumph T-kit with restrictor $40.00 shipped lower 48:
Make any oil tank compatible with your Trump with this kit. Included are:
(1) 3/8" X 3/8" X 1/4" brass barbed Tee
(1) section of 3/8" oil line 4 ft long
(1) section of 1/4" oil line 2 ft long
(1) 3/8" OD x 3/16" ID aluminum restrictor fitting
(6) stainless steel Norma hose clamps designed not to cut into the hose when tighted
Push the aluminum restrictor into the return line that goes between the tank and the Tee fitting to get the proper restriction needed and you're ready to go.
Met Dan at Rockerbox in Milwaukee this past weekend, he seems like a real nice guy in addition to doing top notch work. Nice meeting you Dan!
