I recently bought a Bonanza MX1510 that I am going to rebuild. Of course it is missing parts that I need help with. The major things right now are the rear wheel and the seat base.
I see Azusa still sells the 8” spinner wheels, but I have not found a rear sprocket/ brake drum assembly. How many teeth were on the rear sprocket? Also what size sprockets were on the jack shaft? I will most likely use Hodaka power.
Does anyone have a fiberglass seat base or whole seat that they can part with?
I see new 12” rear shocks for sale, does anyone have any recommendations? They are available with different spring rates and I’m not sure what Bonanza used.

No brake…brand new if using for rear it’ll need drilled out for brake drum…easy process…

60 tooth usually but 72 also I believe on the 1510…usually on eBay etc occasionally $80-200….there is a guy posting on here from ny thst boosts of a plethora of. Bonanza parts may want to contact him first?

The back sprocket looks small in pictures I’ve seen, it’s just barely larger than the 5” brake. I guess that could be 60 tooth or smaller. IMG_3917.jpeg
