Are you still going to use the standard fuel filler?

The standard breather just goes to the filler pipe

Tom,

Jamie's cut down his standard filler neck. Hes managed to get it so it just goes onto a flat surface.
He's putting the tank in the back and boxing it in, then putting the filler neck through the top flat surface

I'll get a pic of it :)
