Gas Tank Shell DIY Builder Narrow Sportster Chopper Bobber

Create a custom motorcycle fuel tank with this steel bobber gas tank shell designed for DIY builders and custom fabrication projects. This unfinished tank shell provides a foundation for creating a one-of-a-kind tank for a Sportster, chopper, bobber, or other custom motorcycle application.

The steel shell has an approximate 2.2-gallon capacity when held upside down like a bowl. The finished capacity will vary depending on the tunnel design and how the shell is modified during fabrication. The shell is intended for builders who want to create their own custom fuel tank rather than start with a finished, ready-to-install tank.

The tank shell measures approximately 15-3/8 inches long, 8-1/8 inches wide, and 7-1/4 inches tall. These dimensions provide a starting point for planning the tank's shape, tunnel, mounting location, fuel filler, petcock placement, and other modifications.

This steel tank shell is suitable for custom motorcycle projects, including bobber, chopper, Sportster, Frisco-style, and other DIY builds. Additional fabrication is required to turn the shell into a complete functional fuel tank.

Frequently asked questions about this tank shell include whether it is ready to install and what its capacity is. This is a DIY tank shell intended for custom fabrication, not a finished bolt-on fuel tank. The approximate shell capacity is 2.2 gallons before accounting for the reduction caused by the tunnel.

These tanks are pressure tested during production, but testing the finished tank yourself before painting and final installation is recommended.

For builders creating a custom motorcycle from the ground up, this steel bobber tank shell offers a blank starting point for designing a personalized fuel tank.
