W tank - retrofit on slabside / slingshot

Plenty of slingshots with later W tanks. They are a bit longer than slingshot tanks and need a bit of attention at the subframe area to blend with the frame. 

Too much of a downward angle on slabby frames to look right, even if you level the tank and build up the bottom of tank to extend to frame (still shit) imo.

Here's mine. The tank is longer which creates a bit more reach

Was there much modifying in the tank? Thinking of buying one for one of my frames

I've purchased the tank mentioned in the opening, here's how it looks just placed on top of my barn found slingshot 1127 K. It just needs a fix to 2 side flaps (or removal) cause currently they both rub against the rear frame. Then I guess it'll look as good as George 1100's one.

Petcock clearance seems to be good.
