    Is this tank easily repairable?

    Is this tank easily repairable?-wp_20140102_001-jpg

    It's for a Hawk and tanks are stupid hard to come by for these things. Does it look easily repairable?

    YUP. Any body shop with a stud gun puller can do it.. Or if it's a racebike, you can beat it from the inside out and bondo the shit out of it. Either way....

    To add to the above: if it doesn't leak it doesn't need fixing.

    "easy" depends on your aptitude. If you can weld and do bondo work then yes, it is easy. They supposedly have newfangled non-welding types of dent pullers, and you may actually be able to get to that dent from inside the tank with some creativity negating the need for a puller in the first place.

    No matter what you will need to do some mudding, sanding, and painting. Only you can decide if that is easy enough for you.

    Maybe it's just me but that doesn't look like a stock Hawk tank anyway.
