So my poor baby took a bad fall in the garage not too long ago and the result of that fall is a dented gas tank. Was doing some work on her with the center stand down and somehow I bumped the bike wrong and she came down on her right side. Oh well live and let learn.
Here are some pictures of the damage.
So the tank when I got the bike was in pretty good condition. No rust on the inside, very clean, no dents, but the paint was chipping and scratched in some areas and I was planning on repainting it or getting it repainted at some point. Now it has all these things plus a dent and more paint scraped off. I was wondering what you guys think about this tank with all thing considered. Is it even fixable? Is it worth getting fixed(price vs fixing vs new one)? Should I just get a new tank and repaint that? Is this a dent I could get out myself? I just need some advice and opinions on this poor gas tank.
