I couldn't find a fuel cell forum but I'm sure Mellow will find somewhere to move this thread I have a fuel cell over the pillion seat that works great, but I am considering building one as a taildragger. Does anyone here have one or have seen one? I am looking at a cheap cell from Jegs http://www.jegs.com/i/JAZ-Products/547/250-004-NF/10002/-1 and am pondering how to connect it to the bike. I'm thinking the cell would bolt to an aluminum plate which would in term bolt to steel straps running to the bike. The lower end straps could run to the muffler hanger bolts. Not sure where a good upper mounting position would be. This would be a 4 gallon tank so 32 lbs of gas plus a bit of weight for the bracketry and cell itself (polypropolene). I want the cell to be rock solid.
Pictures of a mounting system will get you my eternal thanks.
