| + | The 2 shiny ones below are 62-65 NOS tanks. Note that one has a notch in front mount bracket. A mistake? \\ | ||
| + | The chrome one is also 62-65. \\ The 4-fitting tank is 58-61. It has the full rear weldment. \\ | ||
| + | Note the bent supply fitting on the chrome tank. It's like this because of overtightening the drain plug. \\ | ||

| + | ====== Installing a Horseshoe Oil Tank on 66-69 XLCH Frames ====== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Here is a 1966 XLCH frame with a horseshoe tank installed. 65-69 XLCH frames have the boss under the right seat casting for a regulator mount. \\ | ||
| + | The holes are drilled and tapped on 65 XLCH only but the boss stays thru 69 on XLCH frames. \\ | ||
| + | The holes can be drilled and tapped for the 65 CH regulator bracket to mount there. \\ | ||
| + | The 66 frame would be factory fitted with an angled bracket under the seat casting for a lunchbox oil tank. \\ | ||
| + | With that bracket removed, the regulator can be mounted on the boss there. \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | 66-69 XLCH frames have two tabs welded on the back side of the left seat post to mount the regulator. \\ | ||
| + | These brackets, according to the pics below, DO NOT have to be removed in order to mount a horseshoe oil tank to the 66-69 CH frame. \\ | ||
| + | You can see those two brackets in the second pic below on the left post with a horseshoe tank installed. \\ | ||
| + | You'll need the horseshoe oil tank brackets to mount to the engine as well, front (62555-53) and rear (62552-52). \\ | ||
