TC Bros. Round 5″ Oil Tank

The size and shape of factory oil tanks often means they can't be reused without lots of fabrication, especially when used on a motorcycle that's been converted to a rigid rear. This round oil tank looks great on a wide variety of motorcycles, from choppers to metric café motorcycles to Britbikes.

  • 10"L × 5"OD
  • Oil capacity is approximately 3 quarts
  • 100% TIG welded mild steel
  • Available with flat or domed (pill-style) ends
  • Pressure tested to ensure leak-free performance
  • CNC-machined, knurled aluminum cap included (1-5/16"-12)
  • CNC-machined bungs (3) are 1/4" NPT for easy plumbing 
  • Proudly made in the USA

This TC Bros. Round Oil Tank has dimensions that agree with a wide variety of build types. It has a custom oil bag look that doesn't shout for attention. It's a highly functional reservoir, too, holding about three quarts of oil, but it's a small enough in diameter to fit even in cramped spaces.

In addition to the filler hole, the tank is set up with bungs to accept 1/4" NPT fittings ready for you to plumb for your feed line, return line, and vent. For a simpler installation, a vented filler cap is available separately. Mounting kits (also available separately) are a natural fit for 1982-2003 Harley-Davidson Sportsters that have been hardtailed using a TC Bros. rear section, but this tank and those kits are also very suitable for Harley-Davidson Big Twins and lots of other custom bikes with a traditional backbone and seat tube arrangement.

We pressure-test these oil bags, but as in any custom build, it's a good idea to do it again after welding and fabrication. Mockup is standard procedure when building a custom motorcycle before applying any final coatings to ensure there are no leaks and there is proper clearance to route fittings and hoses.

Fitment and installation

  • Universal fitment for custom applications; heavy fabrication required
  • A perfect match for TC Bros. Sportster hardtails and very easily adapted to earlier Sportster, most Big Twin, and many metric and British applications

Customer video review of 70/100-19 E-Moto Motorcycle Inner Tube (2.75/3.00-19) for Surron, E-Ride PRO & Talaria

The tube popped on first inflation; not sure if it arrived with integrity issue or is operational error. Would like a replacement tube shipped.

Store owner replied: Hey Luke, sorry to hear that. Tubes are shipped brand new, and unless there was visible shipping damage, what you're describing sounds a lot like a pinch flat during installation. We've all done it. Motorcycle tubes can get pinched between the tire and rim during mounting, and sometimes they don't show themselves until inflation. For the next install, we recommend using a little baby powder or soapy water and taking extra care with the tire spoons. That goes a long way toward preventing pinches.

Customer photo review of MAXIMA MTL-R Fluid Light Racing 80w Liter

I ordered 2 different items. The first item which was oil delivered within 2 days. Very fast. I was pleased with this. I was hoping the handlebars I ordered would also arrive. Live the Gnar said it was shipping seperate. As of now its been 7days since I placed the order. I reached out via email. Someone responded saying they would look at order and tracking. Its been 2 days and no one has responded. I bought the handlebars as a gift for someone. Definitely would've thought I would've received them or at least received a response from Live the Gnar. This sucks. Either way, I'll just order from another vendor from now on.

MAXIMA MTL-R Fluid Light Racing 80w Liter

Store owner replied: Hey Tony, glad the oil got there quick. The handlebars shipped separately, which is pretty common when different products come from different warehouses. Oil also has to be packaged separately for shipping reasons. The tracking for the bars was emailed directly to you, and they were already on the way when this review was posted. We totally understand being excited for a gift to arrive, but a one-star review feels a little harsh for an order that was shipped and in transit. Either way, we appreciate the business and hope the bars worked out once they landed.
