I agree with Basic Poke. You left out the most crucial step of the dent removal process. Re-do is required.... just pick out another badly dented tank and re-film your actions to take the dent(s) out.
Sparks flying and no man bun, red checkered shirt or slo mo! Brilliant
love supporting this channel
Cool updates on the garage, thanks for showing them!
Gratz on getting the dent out, amazing how sturdy those old tanks are given the thinness of the metal and all. Stay cool its hot out there!
quick safety tip for anyone trying this technique: make sure the tank doesn't have any residual gas vapors before you cut. I know you did but someone else may try to "cut to the chase" and try this first. love the vids
i was really hoping for the inner tube to work the first time but oh well! keep up the good work man! love the videos.
Congrats! Enjoy your trip to GA...
What a great solution! Tank looks great!
Nice work!! Must feel nice to get that off your list.
Great work.
Way to stay diligent brother!! Looks miles better than what it did before! Another great video. 👍👍👍
Well done on the dents finally mate. It takes a lot of dedication to cut a tank open for some dents and I love that you’re doing it to keep some of the character and history on the bike. Really enjoying the content so keep it coming 👍
Love every damn video. Super chill
nice to see the dents out, definatly like how the big one came out, might have to do this on my tank, bit of a pain but, if wanting to keep the finish..
Interesting approach, Taylor! Glad it worked out for you. You may still be able to get a bit more out with glue tabs and a slide hammer if you feel like it some day. Thx for sharing.
🏍👍🏍
Great work mate, that large dent looked like a headache but all sorted! Cheers
always love your videos, man
Good job.
I am about to get 1978 Honda CB750F after watching these videos :)
Finally! Honestly, good job on getting that out and the weld job. I assume you'll end up shooting the bottom with black or green, etc to cover it all back up. Looking good!
that ended up pretty good ! sorry the freezing wasent enough
solide stuff man
you are the man
Oh no... I'm all caught up. Damn
Persevere.
If you were willing to do that you should have called a dent guy. Any semi decent pdr tech could have gotten those out with no push marks!! Love the bikes. Great work.
Nice job! The fuel tank reliner called "Red Kote" is the absolute best out there, and will even seal up all that rust, and any pin holes, either from rust through, or in your case, the welded seam. Amazing product. And muriatic acid (available at hardware stores) will take rust out, and return the inside of the fuel tank to shiny metal in about 15min. I've done a lot of tanks this way.
I will have to check that out. I used POR15 tank sealer this time but always like trying out new products.
Thanks but I wish you had shown how you got the dents out. Kind of an important thing to show.
Hey man, awesome video once again! I have learned so much from this channel, keep up the good work. I do have a question about the lighting for this bike. I assume you will be using the LED strip like previous builds but don't remember if you specified. I was thinking of using the "stem" signals you used on a previous build and from your link in the description for my 74 550. Are they pretty bright or so so? Thanks again
A miniature suction cup dent puller would have worked. They're like 15 bucks.
Woo!!!
I was thinking of Doing the same thing on My Hodaka wombat tank Maybe drill a Big hole on the bottom and use a wood dowel . I tried the Inner Tube Trick pushed some of the dent out but not all Plus these Tanks are Thick
Onyourbike did a great segment on getting dents out of a BSA tank. I see what you did but check them out anyway.
Awesome job again
Welding thin steel can be tricky but you did very well.
What the heck is a State sale ?
“An estate sale” generally when someone passes or moves into a retirement home they have a sale where they sell off most of their things.
Classic Octane arrrr ok 👌 I thought you said State not estate lol 😂
Great job on the dint by the way.
What song is that I can’t put my finger on it? Good choice
Aqui no Brasil existem profissionais da funilaria denominados "Martelinho de Ouro" que solucionariam estes amassados sem a necessidade de cortar o tanque...
it might push the dent out
Zwill you put an air test on the tank?
Tig welder would of worked wonders on that weld job . People are scared of Tig welding its always put in the too hard basket or too expensive but its really not ... its super easy and way better on jobs like that . I brought a cheap Cigweld 185A lift tig no pedal very basic and it welds 100 times better for delicate jobs such as yours it cost me under a grand completely setup with a heap of different filler rods and torch spares . It will be your go to welder 99% of the time . As for learning how to do it a few youtube videos and practice an hour or so and you will be on your way to success
Good stuff man! What part of Austin do you reside? May be relocating there soon
I'm on the north side in Cedar Park.
+Classic Octane Nice, I’ll be in touch if I head south! Working on a cb650 project currently.
Hi Taylor, would like to support your channel via amazon purchases but wondering if it can be done through the UK website as that's where I am?
To be honest I'm not sure. I believe it's international but I'm not 100%. Thanks for the support either way though!
Hello, great video, but isn't it too dangerous ? Gas tank is full of vapor that can explode when close to fire. That's why some people fill with water before welding a tank.
My gas tank was full of water and frozen solid last week so I didn’t have to worry about gas vapors. Otherwise you should definitely be carful cutting/welding gas tanks.
I think you need a new camera
Yeah my GoPro got a little weird.
