Looks really nice. A good option for those considering a 48. I watched your video of the risers. Definitely another plus on the 48 if needed. These items really open the customer base to this great bike. I would search for a comfy solo seat. Saddleman Explorer maybe.
In my opinion Gas Tank of 48 Is The soul of this model If you change It, The forty eight lost a lot of His autenticity. So I'll choose The original gas Tank
Paul Velazquez fair enough... i wanted that extra range! I couldn’t do my favorite 100 mile loop in texas with 48 tank unless i carried an extra gallon of fuel in a can! Not cool! That’s primarily the reason for the change and of course to make it a one of a kind bike
Its been some years but i got it in ebay. Just search sportster fuel tank... comes raw and does need sanding and work! So make sure you have a good body tech
Dony Lee yes... i just went to local auto part store and got some rubber fuel line for it. Super cheap! But yes! I forgot to mentioned that in the video
your bike looks awesome, i have a question, is the tank tested for pressure ? do i need to make any inner work ( primer coat) ? or just go for paint job and install it ? thanks
Kareem Gamal thanks... the tank comes ready for fuel but it will definitely need more than just paint on the outside... they come primed but thats just for corrosion prevention ... sanding and body work is needed, reprime, top coat and clear or course.
Hi there… seat is the biltwell sporty 8 seat. Can be purchased anywhere they sell biltwell brand and the tank was from Amazon and i had it worked and painted in San Antonio. Place called zombie paint
oeddie83 no issues at all! 2 minor Inconveniences are: The tank needs body work! So make sure you have a good painter to work on it... it will need sanding and priming... 2 ... the fuel pump goes in the opposite side of the stock one..: 4$ in longer fuel hoses from autozone solves that.
Hey I love the bike and the tank how many miles more you get with that tank ?? Just curious, looking to do upgrade I was thinking of doing 4.5 but I think I might just go your route

Jaime Arturo Olvera yes! I bought mine in ebay! Be advised... the pump is in the other side so you need longer fuel hoses... a couple of inches... thats like 3$ ... also... the tank doesn’t come ready for paint!

I got it in ebay and it doesn’t come even close to finished nor ready for paint. Ckout some of the comments here where i shared the link when I bought it.

TheBLINDGIANT worked out well... i use the harley gasket with all the stock hardware with no issues. Bumps in the process were ... tank is not close to be finished... you need a person that can do some good body work! Need sanding and evening out and priming prior to paint. Also, the pump hole is in the opposite side so i had to reroute the hoses... 3-5$ in hoses from auto zone ... everything else went smooth !

I know this is old but I just got my first harley and the tank was the first thing I wanted to replace. Thanks for the great info!
That artist did a nice job and I have a 2022 48 and I would like to install a bigger tank.
He did! He is a beast!
As long as the tank is the same shape, its cool. An extra gallon of capacity is a big difference
An extra gallon was the difference between carrying fuel cans and not carrying fuel cans for my favorite in Texas
Exactly what I was looking for. Same shape just more
Looks good. You know what the mirror issue means..... NEW BARS.... WOO HOO!!!!
Little higher tank looks better than the original. Shape of the bike looks perfect after tank replacement.

CONGRATS MAN ! LOOKS GREAT-
LOOKS UNIQUE. STOUT. STILL TOUGH TOO & SEXY AT THE SAME TIME. Your money was well spent. Thanks too for sharing.
Thanks brother
I have a 2017 48 I put white wall tires Hollywood handlebars next is a 4.5 tank
jjr2sticks nice! There is a dude in youtube that did put the bigger tank from a sportster custom in and i dig it!
Where can you get a 4.5 tank for a 48????
Sulli501 ive seen the sportster 1200 tank on it... its big
Perfect touch
Imo it looks better with that larger tank!
CreedX360 thanks!
Looks cool ,I’d like to have one made that’s the same shape as the original but longer and just slightly higher,
That would be amazing indeed... i do prefer the original shape better
Very nice .. i love it.
It came out really nice.
Thanks
I think HD is enjoying this situation . 48

The original tank looks stupid and the size is pathetic.
100% change it,better look,more range,sorted....
Looks great
good job you mob
I like how many gallons is tank I was looking at to buy 48 but I didn't like the gas tanks to little what did that tank come off of
Same here! Good alternative for sure
Saludos amigo de cuanto galones es el tanque que le montastes??
3.3 galones
friend that tank will serve my 48 2020 and if you can tell me where I buy it with the link
Its been some years but i got it in ebay. Just search sportster fuel tank... comes raw and does need sanding and work! So make sure you have a good body tech
Super cool
Hi, nice looking tank, I was wondering if you used a longer tube since the overflow opening is on the right of the new tank.Thanks
Dony Lee yes... i just went to local auto part store and got some rubber fuel line for it. Super cheap! But yes! I forgot to mentioned that in the video
@@RobertOrtiz1015 Thanks man, is the one you got heat resistant?
and the size in diameter if you remember, appreciate it!
Dony Lee i took the one from bike to oreilys and asked for a couple feet of similar hose. As long as its for fuel... you will be fine.
Nice doing the same thank you sir
Mark Giles works great
Looks awesome
Thanks... i think that it still kept most of the 48 looks with a touch of creativity
That's really cool bike, so you get the tank and the paint from same guy or different cause I want to upgrade mind too
I got tank from ebay… super generic and needed tons of work
Looks great. Why not paint the fenders that grey color?
Carlos Gonzalez i was gonna but i wanted just the contrasting colors... not an entire black bike like it was but not the whole bike gray either
I like it. Looks good on the bike. I have a 48 also, looking to upgrade the tank some day. How much total did you spend on the project?
Kevin Yang 125 for the tank and bout 280$ on the paint... it was a bit more than planned because tank needed body work and sanding and all that
Awesome m8 ..love it❤
Great looking bike. It looks like you have risers on your bars. What the height and what brand?
2 inches… i have a video on the bar risers with info on them.
@@RobertOrtiz1015 I saw it after I sent the question but thanks for getting back to me
The tank looks great! The whole bike would look better if you changed (or chopped) that back fender though lol
firstfromabove i ride two up often
your bike looks awesome, i have a question, is the tank tested for pressure ? do i need to make any inner work ( primer coat) ? or just go for paint job and install it ? thanks

If you see this where did you get tank and your seat , Thanks
Hi there… seat is the biltwell sporty 8 seat. Can be purchased anywhere they sell biltwell brand and the tank was from Amazon and i had it worked and painted in San Antonio. Place called zombie paint
Hey man do u recommend these eBay tanks? Any issues with it before u got rid of the 48?

What seat is that? Custom? Gas tank looks better tho, nice job bro!
Biltwell sporty8
Looks real good!
Gary Nester thanks
hi, where can i buy a 4.5 tank for my 2018 sportster 48? I can't find it on eBay
that one you have on your bike is 4.5 right?
@@jorgesuarez1846 i got the 3.3 on mine
How much was the new tank and total cost of upgrade was thinking of doing the same to mine
Frankie
Tank=135$
Custom paint=260$(cannot just be painted... needs bodywork so i got a nice custom shop)
Fuel hose=4$
Nice! what kind of seat is that?
biltwell sporty 8 seat
Hey I love the bike and the tank how many miles more you get with that tank ?? Just curious, looking to do upgrade I was thinking of doing 4.5 but I think I might just go your route
sab0024 about 30-35 more miles depending on how i ride
So how many miles do you get to a tank now I would think at least 120 miles let me know I'm in process of getting the same tank 3.3 gallon
Altin Wood i definitely plan around 120mile intervals of fueling
beautiful looking bike mate!
Thank you sir
Its ok brother nuce horse u should of just got a 4.5 gal and killed many birds with 1 stone
I wanted to keep the peanut tank look and not change the style too much. The 4.5 would have definitely be better for longer rides
So is there a link for the tank? Or is this completely custom
Its an ebay tank… comes pretty raw and needs tons of work.

Putting a 3.1 gallon on mine
What brand of tank is that? Where can I find that?
I got it in ebay and it doesn’t come even close to finished nor ready for paint. Ckout some of the comments here where i shared the link when I bought it.
Who did the custom work? Do they take orders if I wanted one done? Or was this just a friend situation?

It comes wayve so it does need body work and the vent port comes on he right side so you need a hose(3$ autozone
Where did you get the 3.3 tank from what is it off of or what website did you get it from???
Julianni Maldonado eBay... they come raw and it has to be worked! Sanded and prepped and painted of course
how many miles are you getting out of the new tank
About 120... roughly 38-40 more than before
Very cool job! Where did you bought the tank?
Juan Hernandez Amazon... they come with a “primer” on it but the tanks are not even close to finished... i had to pay for the body shop to fix! Needed some work for sure....just keep that in mind
You said it’s a lot higher then the stock tank.but is it also WIDER then the stock 2.2 tank?
pracata732 nothing crazy if its... the capacity it’s obtained with the height... I didnt have to worry about clearance or anything concerning width
Where u got the tank from
stunna scott eBay
www.ebay.com/p/526335320
Keep in mind it comes raw with a coat that is more for corrosion prevention than anything! It has to be taken to someone that can do some bodywork to it.
My brother has a shop
I bought this bike yesterday for my wife
I got the 2012 fuel injection one
stunna scott ohh yeah! Great bike! The 48 wouldn’t fit my wife cus of forward controls... my wife is tiny
Anyone have the link to the tank?
