Alright, I finally welded up some gas tank mounts. I had to redesign the whole thing from buttons to a solid rod that goes through the frame. Next up, modifying the stops so the bars don't smash up my shiny new tank.

Alright front gas tank mounts are done. Now to rip out all of the flammable bits and get to welding.

Don't you worry. The tank hasn't had gas in it for 20 years or so.
