Is your petcock hitting something and keeping the tank from setting down? There are Interstate tanks and standard tanks but they are pretty much interchangeable.

Interstate tank is Bigger than standard/tourer tank. Don't understand hitting air cleaner? Are the Rubber pads on the frame rails where the tank sits?

No way a Valkyrie tank will sit on the air cleaner from what I have seen. And I have had mine off many times. Sometime either has to be under it or it is not a Valk tank. Take the tank back off and post a picture of frame and one of the tank.

Where are you, Sasquatch? Someone close to you might be able to give you a hand. Take some pictures of your tank and upload them to a site like Photobucket, then post them here.
