Default Greetings from Austin, TX

Hello, and thanks for all the posts. I've already learned alot before registering.
I'm searching for an engine kit for my old tandem bike. I'll probably have to go with a rack mount because of the frame set up. Anyone have any advice/suggestions? I'm leaning toward a 4 stroke 49cc.
Thanks,
Jimmy Joe

Hey Jimmyjoe, welcome to the forum. Another good ole Texas boy. There are several 4 strokers that I bet would work. I'm a stroke kind of guy so I can't help you. But I bet you will get lots of folks chime in. Glad you joined us...................

I called Duane at Dax and he was very helpful. The kit is out of stock right now but it will be back in 8-10 weeks if not sooner. He said he'll make a custom throttle cable long enough for my tandem.
Thanks for the input.
