Thats what i thought but the space is tight. if it was tapered at the top it would be ok.

i had the same problem!!
i builded one a bit to exactly to the inner tube dimensiones.. and it didn't fit.
then i needed to slice of 2mm and re weld one lateral..
then it wont enter because of the rollbar..
i ended up cutting out the 2 rear bars...
welded the ST/ST tank in and rewelded the bars back in position...
Tks

Classic, i was almost tempted to do that but i've spent ages painting it. i might put 2 groves in the tank where it hits the bars. the tank in
there build manual must be tiny.

Bryn at Allyfab is fantastic. He just made me a tank very similar to the one on Stephan Jones website for £180 which is very well made. Very
impressed.
