I’ve had her a week. I took her from NJ down to Maryland for the weekend to a friends place for a get together with my college friends. Had a nice 125 mile ride that was mostly uneventful. Got down there and on the 2nd day I was moving the bike back into the shed I was keeping it in and she got away from me. Tipped into the door and put a nice crease in the tank. Wtf can I do about it?

Go to a PDR shop, or take the cover off (presuming it's a cover) and beat it out.

Personally, I’d cut that one in half lengthwise, and mount it on a wall at home. For your bike, just buy a new, or used one.

Tank runs about 800 new. Haven't seen anything undamaged on eBay yet.

Why is there a matte square around the dent?

I mean I don’t know if you have a local body shop you can take it, but you could always just have it repaired, but it probably would cause problems later.

Your best bet is actually to get another one, sorry to say.

Previous owner put an iPhone screen protector on 4 spots on the tank to prevent the magnetic tank bag from scratching
