Thanks I appreciate that. I'll definitely have to have a look. It's kind of weird but I ended up with a frame and front end to one of these today. I saw it at a local swap meet and passed on it and someone bought it and offered to trade it on my minibike club for an old frame I had laying around. So now I have a better front fender but still wanting the rear.

Hi Dan, Do you still have this bike? Would you please post some pics of the front brake set up? Thanks!

No I don't have either of them anymore, I sold them.
I found and old picture and blew it up and cropped it. Does this help?
I "May" have a few front suspension parts from a parts bike I bought a while ago. I can look to see if there is anything I can take pictures of.

Thank you Dan! The picture did help. My bike as purchased had the the shock bolts going through the holes closest to the orange forks. I thought by looking at your original picture that my setup was incorrect, and after replacing the front tire (due to dry rot), I was not sure if my setup was correct.

Hi Hangerbrat,
I did not get an original tank. What I ended up doing was getting a round one off of ebay, and using hose clamps to secure to the frame. I also sandwhiched silicon rubber between the tank, frame and clamps to avoid damaging the finish on the tank and frame.
