No fuel gauge needed?
Who wouldn't want one of these?

Re: No fuel gauge needed?
I can't see any way that idea could possibly go wrong

Re: No fuel gauge needed?
Do you have rust in your tank? "Probably not but let me check... nope"

Re: No fuel gauge needed?
If it's blown glass, it's an accident waiting to happen.
If it's acrylic rated to hold fuel, that's actually a pretty good idea. No rust, can see the level at all times, and you can see if there's any crap in your fuel. |

Re: No fuel gauge needed?
Was it acerbis used to make those translucent ones for the DR traillies? I quite like the idea!

Re: No fuel gauge needed?
Weirdly, I was thinking about this the other day; Bike with a sexy frame and air cooled engine (no idea what) clear panels and tank, tastefully lit with LED's to highlight polished faces on engine fins.
If only I had the skill. fwiw, that looks like glass to me.
