O.K., I did a search but didn't get the answer I was looking for

I see smokin' has a Muzzy air shifter but I HATE those big tanks that would hang off the side of my bike. I have seen a few air shifters but I can't see where the tanks are. Which one would benefit my taste without a big tank showing if there is such a thing?

Here's a shifter that I can't see the tank.

you can cut out the back portion of the seat and put the bottle there that is where I have my nitrous bottle... or you could go with a Pingle full electric shifter

O.K. but as you see this bike above, the swingarm is stock and she has no fairing on the side to see if there's a tank or not. Not sure why no fairings are on the bike in the first place though..............maybe to save weight.............LOL?

The electric pingel is just so damn bulky. I guess I'm a picky azz hugh? I just want the neat shit, that's all.

save weight? I'd guess not to scratch 'em. That bike is pretty low by looking at the front fender.

Theres room under the seat. Ill try 2 get a pic 2night after work. If you had a drag seat there would be alot of room. I even have the bigger tank on mine.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. That is what I am looking for, how some of you have installed yours to hide the tanks. In fact, I will never take off the seat cowl because my shit is a one seater ONLY anyways.

Lookinmg forward to seeing the pics.

You can use a Drag Seat and have enough room for a 2 pound bottle.

Depending on if your using air or co2 is where your going to run into problems with bottle size. I use a 4oz co2 bottle i bought from iisports in cali. It fits right where the tool box was, i use a hose clamp to hold it to the old toolbox mount. The bottle is about 5 inchs long and will fit sideways between the frame.

The Pingel is a nice piece but bulky ass heck. Imma stay away from that one. Thanks though. The one that ninja14 mentioned is smaller than the Pingel.
