Removing fuel tank dents.

How much does this cost, and where can i get it done?

There's plenty of places all over the UK that do this kind of thing.
Also I think you can get kits to do it yourself at home now as well.

Where you based?

pour a 2l bottle of diet coke in it, then drop in a packet of mentos*

slam the cap shut and run away*









*may or may not work

I'd go with the latter

Romford, Essex.


I've contacted a dent fixer in Woodford, but the website says nothing about bikes.

The act of poring the cola will agitate it to much and the effect will not work the same.

The is mention of using frozen peas and then adding boiling water but I have no idea if it works. Depending on dent you could get a dent puller or mig a rod on and try pulling that, or just have it filled.

my option was it was cheaper to buy a 2nd hand tank.

That would be about £75-100 on ebay by the looks of it. Wouldn't dent removal be cheaper? There's no paint loss.
Here's a pic.

check these out. Not sure if it would work on a deeper dent but I'm considering trying it on my 7R - the worst that could happen is it doesnt do anything and you are back to square 1...

I can't even see the dent, must be small!
