dual tanks?

While cutting out the half ass home built hitch .I started thinking about moving tank rearward. Multiple reason, 1 Being back farther it has leverage effect and moving 220lbs if full back almost 2' has to help the lack of rear wheel weight w/o actually adding weight. Second thought was man could add another tank and double fuel capacity for road trips.
Grandfather had 3 tanks with two saddle bag style on sides and although never had problem. A t-bone would not end good. This way only down side is fill up of 60 gallons. Other than tank and some work only cost would be switching valve for fuel pickup and sending unit.

Figure most here smart enough not to consider b ut maybe one more nut case and have done similar. Thoughts?
