You're a day late and a dollar short lolYou Jerry...
It's his thread... let him present it as he chooses. This is where the first thing your mom (and my mom, and his mom, and her mom, and everyones mom) attempted to drill in to you comes in to play...
Patience..
BTW ... Chain was just trying to point out that you could simply hold off a couple days for more info before responding if the "guessing game" isn't your forte'...
EDIT: And all of this is a moot point anyway as the thread continues and more is revealed.... so nevermind.

I use a general-purpose tank made in China for the fuel tank.

I believe it's a copy of the Yamaha RD50.
For the forward mount, I drilled a hole in the frame and fixed the rubber cylinder with a long bolt.
Rear mounts have bolted points welded to the frame.
This is a slightly old photo, but please refer to the position of the red circle.

Pedal or kick start?

Both.
When the center stand is raised, the rear wheel floats, so when I put it in 2nd gear and step the pedal on, I can do a pseudo-kick start.

What is the round container under the seat?

Looks like a cool little storage "trunk"...

is it possible to bang gears, in one of those mower transmissions, or do you have to stop to shift.

That's what I was thinking it was.
