I have talked about the quality of the FatKatz products in my column on several occasions so I won’t dwell on 
the topic, but suffice it to say, you cannot go wrong with any of the FatKatz fine products. So pick the style that 
you like and have at it. Setting the tank on the frame without any rubber or cushions will give the clearance 
needed with a tiny margin after everything is installed properly.

I ordered this tank from 
FatKatz with the recessed 
(hidden) tank mounts for a 
cleaner look and less 
vibration. The rubber 
iso-mounts will also 
last longer. Use Gardner-
Westcott (# 08907) here.

You can see how nice 
everything looks when 
completed.

Without the rubber 
installed, set the tank 
on the frame.

Now turn the frame 
over, slide on the 
stretched FatKatz 
T500S gas tank and 
see what is needed for 
clearance.
