Hi all, I have a question related to relocating tanks to the rear.

I have looked for threads showing the relocating of tanks.

What I need to know is the distance from the side of a long fleetside to either the edge or centre of a bed mounted filler so that I can have it exiting in the centre of a regular length of bed wood.

Unfortunately I have a checker plate metal floor at the moment which will probably stay for the time being to carry the bike when the time comes.

I am getting a tank made in the UK due to total cost involved in getting one from the USA, using the measurements of one of these :

This is the look I would love, with the filler dead centre of the board

Any advice or pictures and diagrams and measurements greatly appreciated

Thanks. Martin.
