Worksman Step Through Bike Build

[davearoy]

This is my recent build of a Worksman Step Thru Bike. I had a problem mounting the tank, it is only 2 inches above the carbs inlet. I will look for a Handle Bar Tank to see if I can gat a better graviety flow. I get a lot of bubbles in my fuel line, and that causes the Dax 80 cc engine to suck air and loose power. My top speed because of this is only 24 mph.

The bike looks nice, Dave. That does leave the carb high up, doesn't it. I wonder if a round cylinder type mounted to the handlebar would work for you. Wouldn't you still have the same problem with the bubbles? Is there any cushioning under the tank... I use rubber hose under my rear mount tanks and haven't had that problem.

Cool. With the fuel tank in the rear, slamming on the brakes should get some fuel moving.
