I have a small dent in the gas tank right on the edge of the gas cap. Is it possible to remove a dent like that from the tank like you can a car panel? It's right on the edge of the gas port but doesn't create a space or hole in the seal anywhere. Just in general is it possible to fix something like that to where it's not so noticeable?

bondo and sand it down, then repaint it. if its not that noticable i wouldn't worry bout it. i had to do it with mine and you would never know now..

that's the thing, i am trying to eventually get around to painting my bike but i don't want to have to spend the 600 on a new tank just cause this one has a dent from a effing *** that wanted to steal my bike and pry the gas cap open. it's not a huge dent but it is noticeable to me and i don't want to put all this money into my bike just to have one retarded flaw like that ya know. i'll look into and ask some guys around town what they can do for me and hopefully it'll all work out
