    I just need to remove the old gas from the gas tank. Can I do the same thing pop the cover off, take off the gas line and open the petcock?

    Hey cool bike, I have an 88 600 shadow but sadly without a gas tank. I was wondering if you knew if an 800 tank would work? or any other compatible gas tanks? thanks a lot its my first bike I'm putting together, just wanna get it in running order.

      Hi Trevor, it would be difficult to mount any other tank. It would be much better to run the stock 600 tank. You could check eBay for a used one or go online and shop the Honda motorcycle OEM suppliers. Thanks so much! Lance

    What is that part behind the chrome plate u unscrews off? Mine is leaking from there and need to replace

    • @BlueCollarBobbers
      @BlueCollarBobbers  9 років тому

      I think that is the vacuum petcock behind the chrome piece. If you look on a motorcycle OEM supplier, you will be able to see all the parts. Just google Honda motorcycle OEM parts. I hope this helps! Thanks, Lance @ BCB

    So the only thing holding the tank down is a screw and the gas line?
    Mine is loose and keeps rattling if i hit a bump. Any idea how to tighten? Thanks!

    • @BlueCollarBobbers
      @BlueCollarBobbers  8 років тому +1

      Yeah I know what you mean. There are two rubber grommets at the front of the tank. I replaced mine and it's still a little loose and makes a sound when I hit big bumps. You may want to replace yours and if the tank feels loose when you slide it over the grommets, wrap some tape around the grommets, hopefully that will eliminate the problem. Thanks, Lance

      Make sure the two plastic front side covers (part nos. 63500-MR1-000ZC and 63600-MR1-000ZC) are tight; they help hold the tank down in front. My bike started rattling at certain RPMs; I tracked it down to the gas tank vibrating in front. Then I saw the two front side covers wasn't holding the tank properly... they were cracked. So I got the two new front side covers in, and no more rattling.

    The bolt on the rear of my gas tank doesn't seem to want to come out no matter how much I unscrew it or try and wiggle it. The previous owner made a horrible seatpan for it that the bolt goes through. Any ideas?

    • @BlueCollarBobbers
      @BlueCollarBobbers  8 років тому

      First, make sure that the guy didn't put a nut under the bracket. Next, put some oil on the threads and pull upward with a pair of pliers around the bolt. Hopefully if the threads are stripped, pulling upward will release the bolt. Keep us posted!

    Hi,
    I own a vt 1100 1993.
    Do you guys know where the fuel tank ventilation is on that thing?

    • @BlueCollarBobbers
      @BlueCollarBobbers  9 років тому

      WTFisAflo It should be a small tube coming out of the bottom of the tank somewhere.

      Hi Spiros, yes, it should be the same as the VLX, only it is the European version. Here is a link to our website.
