Can someone please post a list of credible fuel cell manufactures. I'm pretty much ready to do this.

Thanks, Flip.

I use a generic tour tank myself - tourtank.com

Sampson Sport Touring does custom ones - http://sampson-sporttouring.com/

There's a lot of folks that do bike specific ones, but do not know any for the HD.

Tourtank was really good to me. I recommend them and their prices
are fair.

Just be careful - their volume's listed are not accurate at all. My 4 gallon tank holds 5. My previous 5 gallon tank held 6.5. For whatever reason, the volumes on their main site (http://www.coyote-gear.com/) are much more accurate than on the tour tank site. The tanks on the tour tank site are the same, the pricing just includes the filler, baffle and bung  fitting.

Fuel Safe (http://www.fuelsafe.com/) and Summit Racing (http://www.summitracing.com) are two reliable sources.

Both provide the parts needs to put a fuel cell system together, but do not provide turnkey solutions for motorcycles.

I designed my own and had a client in the boat business have his tank builder make it up for me. I just supplied the design and filler bung to be welded in place. The fabrication, which was likely discounted, only cost me $100. ( Likely built on someone's lunch hour ). I can't get you that special price but I suspect that a custom tank is easily within anyone's budget.
