Here's some photos of my new stainless steel gas tank. I made it myself out of pieces of scrap stainless sheet of varying thicknesses. The cap has three levels inside to catch drops and prevent splattering when going over bumpy roads. The first two levels have small spiral labyrinths connected by small holes. Once the bike fell over with a full tank and it took me four seconds to get to the bike. Not a single drop made it out of the tank. As you can see, I used stainless on my custom tuned torque pipe. I ride in the winter in a big city with ice spikes. Lots of chemicals are dumped on the streets to melt the ice and when that mix gets splashed up onto a hot pipe, it rusts through in a few weeks time. My next header pipe will definitely be made of stainless steel.
I don't see a way to change the order of the photos as they will appear in the post on this new system. So they're out of order....
