- Hey y'all!
We have a homemade tool we made here in the shop for getting dents out of motorcycle gas tanks, check out how it works in this video!
It's a simple tool that can be made using the most basic tools and material that most people probably have kicking around and can be put away in the tool box to be used any time ya need it! It's completely mess free (as long as you don't spill gasoline all over the floor lol) without having to put a diaphragm, water or anything else in your tank that will be a pain to remove.
Hope someone finds this useful. Now go fix those gas tank dents!

Alright!! Nice quick fix Red, it’s great to have the guidance of your dad. He’s a really handy guy, the world needs way more humans like him in it. Thanks for the tip and for letting us in on the repair. Keep up the great work, your videos are fantastic! Have a great day/night and we’ll see you next time.
Your Dad, an "old Grey beard with DECADES of experience" is a treasure. Pay heed to the knowledge he's giving you as his daughter. Your a lucky woman!
Thanks for posting this and sharing this knowledge - at 59 years old I learnt something new today - that makes for a good day 😎.
Well that’s good news! Thanks for watching 👍
How can anyone not like you, great job on the tank
Red Rider I love how you share all the tips/tricks to getting a job done without fancy and expensive tools. Just some good ol' fashion common sense approach. Everything doesn't have to be turned into rocket science to get the job done. Keep riding that sweet shovel up there in B.C. and stay safe!
Cool trick, Red.
You two teach me a lot. Thanks!
Ingenious design for the tool Red. It must be another one of you dad's great ideas.
Great idea , simple and very effective. Proper teamwork as usual. Cheers Richie.
Perfect timing. I'm working on a dented tank right now. Thanks for the video!
Hey Red! Thanks for that nugget of knowledge!
Being able to think is a wonderful thing and your dad obviously has that ability.
That coupled with his skill at fabrication makes him a very valuable asset.
Congrats on that Dent ! Brilliant Approach -
Well presented, clear information and highly useful. Thanks again.
That is awesome. I've heard of others doing that but never seen anyone actually do it. Really good vidieo Red. Thank u so much.
Your videos are teaching me a lot about motorcycles , Harley Davidson to be exact
Nice to see Daughter and Dad working together my dad taught me to work on stuff to .Not hear now . You treasure the moments you have . Thanks for the
tips on the dent removal never new that cool.👍👍🏴.
You are getting it done that's all that counts you guys make a good team 👍 keep up the great work my friend stay safe be blessed
That was great I will definitely remember that. Thanks again. Have a great day.
Have heard of using air pressure to push dents now I've actually seen it done . Definatly took notes. Great job!👍
I have used a plumbing test cap I made years ago but for some reason never thought to use a tire pump. Thank you. YOU HAVE brought a remedied available to anyone this way.
I like that you work with your dad!
Learned something new today. Thanks Red. 😎
You make me smile every time I see ya Red😁👍
Love home made tools, that worked great, very little body work left to finish tank for paint.
Thanks you guys ! So awesome 😀 my son's tank needs that tool .
Simple and really inventive-great video.
Good job Red!
What a cool ideal and such a neat tool that you and your Dad made RED/Janis. Nice to see him in the video with you. Take care and be careful out there.
Brilliant idea to you both
.

Thanks for watching!
Hell yea Red , that's slick ✊ . I appreciate the knowledge to you and your Paw .

talk about innovative...!!! not only are you getting first hand learning experience from your dad as ive mentioned before...but we (the subscribers) are as well...... passing on the knowledge, experience and tricks to keep the motorcycle community in the wind....!!! ride safe y'all..
It's good to see old school bikers passing their knowledge down to the next generation...and to see the next generation taking it all in..
I choose the biker lifestyle and knew I couldn't live as I planned and be a dedicated family man too...
But I've been involved in the raising of kids for sure...
That was pretty cool great job
How interesting! I never thought of such a technique! Of course, thinking is not one of my better events . . . . Nice job!
I've done this before! Works great!
Nice video, made my day learning something very useful.
Wow, If I knew this my bike i got 45 years ago would still be original! Thanks!
Your Dad is a genius hun. And a good Dad . god Bless you both .
God bless you too ✌️😁
Awsome Tip much Thx to you and your Father!
Clever little trick!
Thanks out to you and your dad.
Great job and great tip for us all. Awesome video. ✌
Good on ya Red, thanks for sharing.
That's a cool little trick! Thanx for sharing it. Two thumb's up for that!
Excellent video, great explanation of how you made the tool and how it works. Old school stuff there. Great job and best of luck with your bike.
Thanks!!
Like your bike, like you even more, like the tank tip too. Thanks!
Amazing tool.
Cracking job!! Love it!!
Red rider!!!!
Thanks!
Great Idea Red Thanks for info
that's a slick trick. i'll have to remember this for the future. thanx!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the demonstration. Liking your dad, you and our bike. 😎
Awesome.. Thank you for sharing. Great videos..
Pretty slick there!
Was I impressed with the gadgets performance. Definitely. 👍
That was pretty sweet. The timing of this video for me is spooky cool. I just took most of a pretty big dent out of my tank with a PDR kit of Amazon. I think it was $26. I used my own glue gun and gorilla glue sticks. I bet with your method and the glue sticks I could probably pull some small dents too.
Very helpful video.
Also…who doesn’t like a red head with a bike and likes to wrench ?! 😉
Good video, years ago I use to do paintless dent removal with the rods and such, and paint chip repair with air brush. It was a fun job seeing people's face smile when they realized they just saved a whole lot of money from a body shop.
Good idea! Not a total answer but a very big part of it. Thanks for posting this.
Thanks for watching! I hope it was helpful 🙂
What a great bit of information-thank you both.
Glad it was helpful!
Nice, ❤ the "home invention tools" to remedy problems. Wish we were neighbors (got an '02 Super T needs exact same fix)😆👍
That's a pretty smart guy he be good to have around when you're in a pinch
You're very pretty smart girl you're going to do just fine in life God bless you
@@mikemike8087 Thank you :) God bless you as well my friend.
Well done Red! Nice job 🙏
Tank you 😉
Thanks for the information 👍
Nice Fix
Cool, looks like a handy little device to have. 👍✌️
Your dad is old school cool. Need a tool ? Think about it for a minute then make it.. a great way to remove dents from a tank. Thanks Red !
I've also seen this done with a small firecracker taking knee dents out of dirt bike tanks. But your tool gives you more control.
Hey red rider that was so awesome and super smart using a hand pump. I'm going to try to do my tank tomorrow thank you so much
Thanks for watching!
Grat tool! Make it, market it 😊😊😊😊😊
Thanks for sharing. That's a really good idea.
Thanks for watching!
I`ve used the same principle many times on different tanks and usually it works, sometimes the dent are stubborn and require more forceful measures anyway, glad it worked for you.
It works good for some dents. But smaller dents are a little tougher to deal with.
I love that your not scared to get your hands dirty and that your learning thinks with your bike .
Great video . By the way your a cute one red .
Thanks 😊
Ya that's a great idea done it myself often your right just don't wanna burst tank
That’s impressive.
That's a very good idea, I've taken dents out of tanks before, just by cramming a rag down around the air nozzle while it's in the tank, that method works sometimes but your way is much better, I'm thinking that someone makes a tool for that too ? Nice job, thanks for sharing !! ✌
Thank you I'm going to try that
Good job guys, pretty cool
Thanks !
Well I have got to say that was so cool to see nice job
Wow. that worked good. thanks for the tip. Hey to Pop.
hey back at'cha doug.
Very good! Thanks.
i like red heads, will keep watching
Hey. I just learned that from you. Thank you for the lesson I never thought of that
Cool! Thanks for watching!
I learn everyday....Thumbs up.
Glad you liked it 😄 thanks!
That's a good idea sometimes you can heat the dent with a hair dryer and cool it fast with water and the dent will pop out but I'm gonna make one of those neat tools to use too
Great vid!
I use something similar back in the 80's to take dents out of 2 stroke pipes.. you are a cool woman...
Thanks 😁
Nice job!
Great job Red and Dad!
The same tool can be used to leak test the tank too.
Pressurize to 5-10 psi and either submerge in water or spray with soapy water, paying particular attention to the seams.
You bet ya!
wow a hand pump l was expecting a air compressor great work.. cheers
A hand pump is safer, you aren't as likely to burst welds.
Great, I love this. And I love you too, girl! 😉 I've also seen that pouring hot water over the dent helps to soften the metal temporarily.
Cool tool
Great idea thanks for the info!!
Thanks from Sweden!
Hello Sweden, thanks for watching!

I am envious of the gent's hair!
Cool ! Thanks Red.
You bet!
