In the last episode I made the connection box fort the speedo, this will be hidden under a cover but still easily accesible. Next I needed to connect the 2 tank halves at the top and bottom. I machined the hose nipples for the top and made a little jig thingy that mimicks the tankmounts on the frame to make sure they would be welded exactly opposite eachother. Aad did the welding.

 
 
 
I also added a fuelguage that will be visible through the bubble when riding, maybe I will put a light behind that for better visibility.

 
 
Before connecting the tanks at the bottom and relocating the fueltap I started making new lower tank mounts that will hopefully clean up that area. Normally they connect to a big ugly bracket on the front downtubes, I cut that off already and will connect the lower tankmounts to the countrybar of the frame
