I want to combine my oil tank into the gas tank. Are there going to be any heat issues I need to worry about?

Excellent ICON!!!tbone16 said:i could of swore we had a thread on this. I am pretty sure you just use a thicker gauge steel for the oil bag walls to dissapate heat. From what I reacall it was mighty simple.
Thanks Al, a vw forum admin made it for me without my consent. I just logged in one day, and there it was. I was lookin a little boring like over here, so i figured why not.big_al said:Excellent ICON!!!

I don't know if you run PM brakes before...I first hand will tell you the price you pay for them dam brakes they are no better then stock calipers...so IMHO it's not over braked....I've never tried the PM race calipers that maybe the trick...very busy looking bike I dig it....JEB said:Ok, now that I looked at the other pics on your website that tire looks smaller. The side shot was fooling me.
How does the rear end feel when you stop? Is there any noticeable flex? Did you have to run a larger M/C to feed both calipers? You're definitely overbraked at the rear, but it looks cool as hell.
DETAILS, MAN, DETAILS!
Wrong. Very wrong. Earlier 45s were total loss. Harley had figured out circulating oil systems by the time of the WL (late '30s).Panman51 said:The old harley WLA had a set-up like that, but it was a TOTAL LOSS oil system. As long as your oil pump can push the oil into the higher tank, shouldn't be a problem.
My rear drum brakes lock up.......stock disks lock up more easily......so what does it mean to be over braked.....I mean really, if they lock up, do you want them to lock harder? Dual disks..waste IMHOChopper Chaz said:I don't know if you run PM brakes before...I first hand will tell you the price you pay for them dam brakes they are no better then stock calipers...so IMHO it's not over braked....I've never tried the PM race calipers that maybe the trick...very busy looking bike I dig it....
