The gas tank can be made out of plastic high-density polyethylene, which can be made into complex shapes, save space, and can improve crash safety. The gas tank can also be made out of steel or aluminum, which is welded from stamped sheets.

They are made out of polyethylene (the exact blend I’m not sure) and are very difficult to bond without special priming and adhesives. The addition of fuel doesn’t help either. Patman had some suggestions in your other thread but to be honest your best bet is to buy a new tank.

1. Drain the gasoline from the tank and allow it to dry.
2. Mix the 2 part epoxy together and apply all around the perimeter of the opening.
3. Place the fiberglass patch over the hole and press into the epoxy.
4. Allow to dry, sand the patched area smooth and spray paint with a plastic paint if desired.

Our tanks are cut from sheet aluminum and bent, formed, and welded into shape by our skilled team. Then they’re finished and pinstriped carefully. We’ve come to realize that we’re walking the line between “production without personality” and one-of-a-kind customs (which are—by definition—un-reproducible).

Aluminum is a very dense element that can accommodate twice the amount of energy as gasoline fuel in the same volume. Aluminum itself can’t be used as a fuel – not by itself that is. This is how the Alydro (Aluminum-Hydro) technology was born – a reactor which produces energy from a reaction between aluminum and water.

When the petcock is switched from main to reserve, the fuel that goes to the engine comes from a lower part of the tank, and the lowest part of the tank is where the water and dirt go if left alone. If the reserve is never used, the level of the water and dirt in the bottom of the tank continually rises.

How to Make a Temporary Gas Cap

1. Buy a temporary gas cap at your car dealership. Be sure to get the right type and make sure it fits properly.
2. Tear off a piece of aluminum foil large enough to cover your gas tank opening. Place it over the gas tank opening.
3. Ask the attendant at the gas station for a spare cap.

Motorcycle fuel tanks can have a capacity between 2 to 10 gallons. The most common size of motorcycle gas tanks is usually between 3 to 6 gallons. However, 0.25 to 0.90 gallons will be the reserve tank.
