Hello Railroad bob hope all is well with your builds, working on chopper gas tank fab work. Might re use my old stock gas tank and chop it down to the size I want and need to fit up nicely, here is a pic with the stock Honda tank on frame. Seems to wide and long, so we will figure out what to do.

Hey dude, how's the build coming along....?
I just helped a friend complete a nice little CB900 Honda chop, here's a pic for you (more on one of my threads).... Looks like we have a similar colour scheme going on.....
