The top on left plug can be removed to look like the one one the right. Regular thread.
Right, which I ended up doing but is there a reason why?
I am more used to seeing the one on the left. I had never seen one like the one on the right didnt know if there was a reason for the difference.
Converstation piece here: I had debated keeping the original paint but upon further examination and buffing attempts I believe it is too far gone. A chip by the pin stripe revealed that the brown gloss color was laid down over the nice flake color. Why would they paint the entire tank a nice flake color and then cover it up? I really wish there was a way to keep the color underneath and remove that top gloss brown. Sanding and paint removal is probably in the near future for this tank.
What process/steps do you all normally use when repainting a tank?

Hello! So, I have had my bike for a few years. I have been having starter trouble. Hits off and on so with that issue I have decided to just go all in on a customization. I will track that here if anybody wants to pitch in advice, thoughts, experience feel free. See pictures below in no particular order. I am curently at the starter stage the complete pictures are before disassembly. Enjoy!
