yes,thinking if cutting it along the edge and putting an
inch strip in, this will give an extra 1/3 capacity

If your going to that effort. Why not make a tank. That way it fits and looks like it should. With some thought you can hide a lot ilof stuff in it. I designed one for somebodies bike build. Was an oil tank. But same theory. Battery and electrics in the top of it. Then when fitted nothing on show.

managed to get the seat loop cut off
and just to show where the tank will be mounted
think i'll leave it in rocho's capable hands to mount the subframe to the
frame and to sort a few more mods out
