These engine kits are offered from many sellers and the quality seems to be all over the place. So I don't know what is gonna show up on my doorstep. I will for sure be making custom mounts because ALL the mounting options I have seen for these engines have been far from ideal. I also don't like the gas tanks, mainly because they look like a gas tank. I have seen several bike conversions that look great. These were all based on Beach Cruiser type bicycles. However, I am going to be hanging this engine on my eighteen speed road bike and the gas tank would just look plain wrong, to me at least. I have already designed and drawn a new gas tank that has a reserve tank in it. This will require two gas valves unless I can find a valve I like that has a reserve position. If anyone here is interested I can post updates on the conversion. Since metalworking will be involved the posts will be appropriate. Eric
