      yes it is possible.All custom chopper makers generally make own tanks.

      e.g :vardenchi in Mumbai

      No idea about sports/street bikes though.Whatever mods I have seen are usually plastic tops on original tanks for street bikes.

      BTW doesn't fz have an actual metal tank inside.the upper portion is just for aesthetics ..ain't it?

        Yes Fz-16 Has Some Kinda Hard Plastic Tank When I Took A Test Drive I Found It isnt A Metal

          the casing on top is plastic in FZ, below that is a solid steel tank, that is provided so that you can change FZ to whatever color you want

            Yes, i think it should be possible... I have seen a guy in bangalore working on tanks for the thunderbird... But again like darkknight i'm not too sure about street bikes... And one prob is quality of the finish even if you make a custom tank... So be really careful if you give someone the job to make a tank... Make sure he is experienced and uses the right materials for the tank...
