The NC29 has a dented fuel tank, and due to these being so expensive I tought about getting it fillered. I also started thing of alternatives, and decided that if ya cba to fix it hide it! Laughing Laughing Laughing

And so a note to anybody with a dented fuel tank, Buy a magnetic tankbag! Laughing Laughing

You could get the tank blown out. I don't know the exact proceedure, but as far as I know they empty your tank and blow it out with an airgun, or something similar. Worked a treat on my old bike, except that it broke the fuel guage.

It isnt in the fuel part, as the bit which is at the front doesnt hold fuel. it could prob just be tapped into shape but as I wanted a tankbag anyway there is no point!

Yeah I could imagine that bugging the hell out of me too to be honest!

You can hide it with a tankbag but you will always know the truth!

Yes the dent would come out, but what do you think would happen the shape of the rest of the tank?
