To Install - Remove your stock tank. Sit your Carbureted Honda Shadow AERO or Spirit upright as if you were going to ride it, have a seat and set the gas tank on the frame. While you are sitting on the bike, hold the gas tank and turn your bars left and right to make sure the tank is positioned far enough back on the backbone (towards the family jewels) so it doesn't hit the risers or the bars when you turn them all the way, yet far enough forward that the rear tab is not hanging off the backbone. You can zip tie, or tape the gas tank to the backbone during this fit process if you'd like, it also helps if a friend moves the bars for your while you hold the tank steady. Its always more fun with friends!

Once you have determined your bars wont hit the tank at full lock, mark where the front mounting tabs hole is with a marker, and check that your rear tab isn't hanging off the back of the backbone, if it is you may need to re-adjust. In this case, wipe off the original marker and start over. Once you've decided on where to mount the tank, center punch the frame where you want the tabs to bolt to and drill a 5/16" hole. You can then thread this with a 3/8-16" tap. You will preferably want to do the front mounting hole first, thread a bolt in and then locate, center punch, drill and tap the rear mounting point.

**Note: To prevent spillage from fuel expansion and vibration, do not overfill, fill within about an inch from the filler neck. We also recommend using T-tape on all plumbing threads. You need to line these tanks. They will rust eventually and then you will be big sad when the gas starts to ruin your 3,000$ paint job from the inside out. **

Guess I have to say this - These tanks are raw steel. If you dont paint them, they will rust.
