Good info TK! I've read thru your thread a couple times now. It's funny you mention the vibration / loose bolts..... I just noticed last night all 6 bolts on the bulkhead are loose!

My gas tank needs replaced already - the rear mount is cracked so iit's being held on with a bungee cord.
I stripped off all the old foam padding & electrical tape last night, and found a good bit of surface rust on one of the tubes. Add that to the list..... took off both tubes for prep and paint:
