Upgrade your custom chopper project with this 2.2 gallon Axed gas tank. With its distinctive bulbous design, this chopper gas tank sits high on your frame’s backbone, giving your bike an authentic, vintage look. Inspired by custom gas tanks modifications from the 1970s, Axed tanks were originally created by enthusiasts who axed stock Harley-Davidson gas tanks, welding the halves together to form this unique shape. Sometimes called Alien gas tanks due to their resemblance to an alien head, especially the dual-cap version (where the caps serve as the eyes), this custom chopper gas tank stands out.
This high-quality tank features compatibility with Harley-Davidson cam-style gas caps and allows you to choose between a 3/8" NPT or 1/4" NPT petcock. The tunnel depth measures 3.5", and the undrilled mounting tabs give you the freedom to install it exactly how you want. For a perfect fit on 1986-2003 Harley-Davidson Sportsters, pair it with Lowbrow Customs Gas Tank Adapter Brackets—no fabrication required!
