Guys,

any one out there with a 50mm drop and a factory tank have clearance issues on a day to day basis, I'm not talking off road Big smile

 I have the option a new tank to fit to my lowered Devon, i know it is slightly shallower than recommended however I've seen a few lowered westys over the years and wondered if there were any issues

cheers

Same here, I have at 86 Club Joker running 50mm down (at least! as got it with kit installed) and no grounding issues on the tank day to day. I have dinged it at bumpy New Forest campsites but that's another thing.
