OK I have you all beat.  5.68 gal. and I have the receipt to prove it. O yea, I was shaking the hell out of the bike just to make it to the pump.  Not a pleasant feeling knowing I may have to push the bike with a trailer.

This is a good point. It is frustrating that one has to stop off from a great ride just to fill the damm thing up.

Does anybody make an enlarge tank for a Glide?

Ceej ... you are a "top man". I have been wanting a larger tank for some time and have asked the question before. I have e-mailed Ted at Cyborg Cycles to see if their 7 gallon tank will take my original fittings.

Much obliged
