I finished the oil tank tonight except for the mounts, I will wait with those until the fuel tank is built. In this pic you can see the oil pickup tube that reaches 1/3 into the tank. This will prevent the pump from sucking air when the bike is braked after a run and the oil gathers at the front of the tank, I chose not to fit any internal baffles since I will be accelerating in a straight line so the oil won´t be all over the place anyway.
After that I welded the tank, leak tested it and fixed a small pore that I had missed to spot earlier, nothing interesting enough to take a picture of. I did take some pics when the tank was hung in place though.
A busy front end. The welds here looks like crap since I hadn´t finished experimenting with the welder settings but later on the welds started to look pretty decent. It is no show bike so I am happy as long as the tank is leak free.
Here is the AN10 fitting for the oil line to the pump, that size should give the pump all the oil it will ever need.
I find myself walking around in the workshop with a stupid grin sometimes, this is actually starting to look like a race bike now!
Cheers!
