V-Twin Mfg. 5.1 Gallon Bobbed Tank For Harley Softail 2000-2007

Classic Bobbed Styling for the Twin Cam Era: V-Twin Mfg. 5.1 Gallon Tank

The 2000–2007 Harley-Davidson Softail lineup is defined by the powerful Twin Cam engine and a refined chassis, but for many riders, the stock fuel capacity limits the potential for true cross-country touring. The V-Twin Mfg. 5.1 Gallon Bobbed Tank is designed to shatter those limits. By offering a significant increase in fuel volume over standard factory tanks, this one-piece bobbed unit allows you to stay on the road longer while giving your bike the iconic, wide-shouldered stance of a custom masterpiece. This tank is a must-have for riders who value both the “long-haul” utility and the classic aesthetic of a traditional bobbed fuel cell.

Engineered for EFI Performance and Precision

Specifically designed for Fuel Injected (EFI) models, this tank is a high-quality replacement for OEM part number 61625-01. V-Twin Manufacturing has utilized 16-gauge stamped steel to ensure a robust and vibration-resistant construction that stands up to the rigors of the road. Because it is engineered for the 2000–2007 Softail frame, it utilizes stock mounting hardware, making the transition from your factory tank as efficient as possible. It is important to note that while this tank maintains the “Stock” mounting points, its custom bobbed dimensions provide a more aggressive profile that flows perfectly with the lines of the Twin Cam engine and the Softail’s hidden rear suspension.

Technical Details and Fuel Management

With a massive 5.1-gallon capacity (approximately 19.3 liters), this tank effectively extends your riding range, making it ideal for highway cruising and group rides where fuel stops can be few and far between. The tank features a single-cap design that accepts standard screw-in style gas caps.

• Fitment: Fits 2000–2007 Harley-Davidson Softail models (FXST, FLST, etc.) with Fuel Injection.
• OEM Cross-Reference: Replaces Harley-Davidson 61625-01 and 61625-01E.
• Provisioning: Built for EFI fuel pumps and lines; however, please note that some models may require slight modification to the fuel gauge or dash bezel for a perfect flush fit.

Custom Preparation and Paint Excellence

This tank arrives in a raw, unfinished steel state, providing a blank canvas for your custom paint project. Whether you are aiming for a classic “Vivid Black” look or a high-end custom metal flake finish, the smooth contours of this bobbed tank provide an excellent surface for high-quality bodywork. As with all aftermarket fuel tanks, we strongly recommend that the unit be pressure tested and internally sealed before any paint is applied. This ensures that the steel is protected from the corrosive effects of modern ethanol fuels and prevents the risk of internal rust or pinhole leaks that could ruin a custom finish. A “dry fit” on your bike before painting is also suggested to verify clearance against your specific handlebar and dash setup.
