Q: Why do Stunt Riders dent their tanks?
A: Denting the Tank allows for the riders ass to be securely in place doing high chair wheelies, high chair stoppies and other tricks.
-Also the use of a tank pad helps with grip
SkateBoard Grip Tape
-Pro: Cheap, Easily cut
-Con: tears up your clothes, wrinkles, looses grip
Stomp Grip

-Con: slightly more expensive, 24 hours to cure
Surf Pad
-Pro: Super Comfortable, Sweet Designs
-Con: tears easily, barely lasts, soaks up gas
Line-X or Rhino Lining
-Pro: Very Strong, Never peels off, looks good and follows contours
-Con: Thick, heavy, expensive, difficult to remove, similar grit to skateboard tape
Q: How to Dent a
gas tank.
A: Make sure its empty of gas, leave the
gas cap in it. Have a buddy hold the bike straight up in the air and jump
down on the tank with your feet push in the top of the tank enough for you
to start hammering in the tank. Use a soft rubber mallet to slowly bring
out the dent to the edges.
Watch no to crease the tank anywhere, because gas will start to leak out.
Some tricks to consider
-Use a phonebook in between the hammer and the tank
-Use a hammer in between the hitting hammer, this give you an accurate
striking point
-Don't be a sissy
-Your probably going to chip your paint.
Q: What is an Otown Dent?
A: Otown dent is a dent farther back, then
opposed to the top of the tank. Right behind the gas cap, instead of
surrounding the gas cap.
Q: How much gas will my dented tank hold?
A: About 1/2 as much and mixed with a
larger sprocket, you are going to get very poor gas mileage and distance in
one tank
Q: I creased my
tank and now it leaks gas
A: You're screwed, you can patch it with
quick steel or JB Weld but eventually it'll leak. A good welder can
fix it but expect to pay a little more then normal. The Fumes are very
dangerous and they know it
