need some upper legs for an S1 or S2 w/drum brake setup. Just need em to be straight and fairly rust free, at least at the important part. (seal contact area) Thanks!

Gordon had a set redone.They looked decent. The forks by Frank were 200 bucks.I got a set of like new tires that I took off if you need them.FREE, if you want them.

franks wants 259 to do the forks and another 35 to ship em. I can buy an inverted front end off ebay for that so... :) like said, im pretty sure mine are 'ok' but not sure, i need ot pull em apart. they do look like ass though.

tires? what kind? Im probably going to go with avons on this bike.

regarding the parts S2^, wheres the rust? can you take a closer pic of them?

The rust on the parts S2 is on the fork tubes from the triple clamp down there is a coat of rust, the rust will prob;y come off with soapy steel wool but there will be some pitting for sure. I can't post pics that a skill that I have not quite mastered...

I'm from the old board but I've also got the front end from my s1 in the shed ready for the scrap yard. I've got the drum, forks, triple tree, probably speedo cable. I'll look tonight and help out. I've got the old spoke drum wheel as well if you need it. Its all crap I'm tired of moving from one shelf to another.
