Young Lloyd Watts is making a name for himself building steel tanks. They are very high quality.

I think some of his stuff is shown on Facebook.

The oiltek ones look proper quality and a good solid fit, the best part of £300 though.

This is mine, Spanish S2, so a bit different to the Italian ones due to frame anomalies...

I have a Diablo made long range tank, it has a toolbox unlike the Oiltek tanks.

It's been fitted for about 4 years and has never been a problem.
I have a battery, oil jug and small tool roll in my toolbox.

Tanks are now done by Johnny
