Crazy Horse: Thanks for the compliment. I had originally tried redb66's motor mount idea, but the tubes are not completely round and I didn't like the fit that the bar clamps provided so I switched to the muffler clamps. Hadn't thought of them crushing the tube, but I'll just make sure to be careful. Yours and Red's builds are definitely inspirations. As far as the chain tensioner, I'm still playing around with ideas, but I have a few buddies who are machinists so we'll see what comes out of it. Thanks a bunch for the link to the wheel, pretty much exactly what I'm looking for, I'll probably pick one up as soon as I have the funds. Thanks for all the links...lots of good info to peruse.
AzToker: Thanks, I like sure like it. I'll be sure to update the forum when it's done and maybe we can setup a time to hang out. I'm in the Escalante and Pantano area, right up the road. I'm for sure thinking of alternate gas tank ideas, we'll see how it pans out, my first order of business is the back wheel, then the exhaust and chain tensioner, then getting it to run, then cosmetic upgrades. If you are willing and able to help with any of those I'd love to take ya up on your offer.
