Ok, i know that the New Era fuel tank is a popular fix for the half-lean problem, and I've been thinking about ordering the rear-mounted tank. My question is can i run my stock fuel tank in the stock location and mount the New Era fuel tank in the rear and run two tanks?? The stock one would feed the New Era tank and then the New Era Tank would feed the Carb. Would this fix my half lean problem also?? I would think it would, being it is the same concept as the header tank mod but just wanted somebody else's $0.02 before i went about doing this! Thanks!!

Sounds like you are talking about a "header tank". I've never done this, but have read where people have had mixed results.
An easier option is the Ofna tank to take the place of the stock tank. Downside it's 125cc capacity vs. stock 160.

That is what i originally was going to do with mine but, i thought if i ran two tanks like I explained before it would eliminate my half-lean issue and add more fuel capacity. I ended up ordering a 75cc tank that i will mount in the rear and i will run it like a header tank, i will post back with pics and results when I get it all done and running!!
