Available for Harley-Davidson Sportsters or Big Twins, plus Triumph or any other make of motorcycle Malinky says: “All of the components that make up these tanks, including the steel, are USA-made. Every single piece of our oil tanks are custom - from the smallest detail on up. “We didn’t use any off-the-shelf parts; every piece was designed specifically for its purpose. These designs are a complete reboot for the manufacturing integrity of the humble but incredibly important custom oil tank - even the oil tank end caps are spun steel with tooling made specifically for Lowbrow tanks. “From the quality of the machining to the picture- perfect TIG welds, one look tells you straight away that everyone involved with the production of these oil tanks are skilled professionals executing a well- thought-out design.” www.AMDchampionship.com Lowbrow oil tanks feature three mounting points (two top and one bottom) to ensure secure and stable mounting with steel mounting tabs. “This is only important if you actually ride your motorcycle! We do, and these tanks are road-tested and ready for anything you can throw at them,” says Malinky. Instead of welded fittings to the top of the tank, the custom-made vent and return fittings on Lowbrow’s oil tanks have furnace-brazed tubing, “keeping all the fittings nice and tidy at the bottom of the tank for easy oil line routing. Not only are we proud of our oil tanks, we are proud that they are made right here in Cleveland, Ohio.” LOWBROW CUSTOMS Brunswick, OH, USA Tel: [phone] [email protected] www.lowbrowcustoms.com AMERICAN MOTORCYCLE DEALER - JULY 2018 45
