Ron Paugh, the Bossman of Paughco calls them “Universal”, hence my headline. But as a Custom Builder I have to warn all of you who are not professionals that any gas tank may need some tweaking, at least at the bolting points, to sit perfectly (meaning the way you like it) on your backbone frame.
In this case, “Universal” means a gas tank model fitting a wide range of machines and styles, from choppers to open road cruisers. As a matter of fact they are designed for use on bikes with stretched top tubes and have an unmistakable “teardrop” shape. Each tank has stock style screw-in filler and vent and standard 22 mm external thread petcock fitting for use with OEM and aftermarket left side mounted petcocks.
Available in 3.4, 3.8 and 4.8 gallon capacities. Tunnel depth is just 3 ½”, overall length measures 21” and center hole-to-hole mounting bracket dimensions are 21” for the 3.4 tank and 22” for the 2 larger versions. All 3 sizes are just $314.95. Call 775-246-5738 or visit Paughco.
Paughco should not call it Universal.
