Tighten up the over lap... It'll help with the lower compression and build stronger mid range power I will be running 12:1 compression

How many bikes come with factory aluminum tanks? There a company in Japan that makes them for a gpz but they're like 3000$

That's a good point but I believe most mx tanks were aluminum in the late 70's at least the real MX's Suzuki and Yamaha...

Is there no old timer on this board, that's a master of the lost art of working with aluminum? If so I'll be your student;)

Jim Breslin is your man, you need to see his aluminum work on his project, he's a master at the trade! I'm hoping he'll start tig welding classes one day...

You don't need to be old to be a master, I had baiting mastered by the age of 14.
