Monark year?

[ratina]

Can anyone tell me what year this is? And does anyone know what badge it would have had? Thanks

It had a Firestone Pilot badge & that tank came from another bike

I can see a Firestone decal on the tank under the paint

 

[dogdart]

But that frame didn't have a tank originally

 

[ratina]

Just curious, how can you tell that? I'm clueless when it comes to Monarks

 

[dogdart]

Because I used to own it :wink:

• and the tank came from this

Makes sense 8)

I think I have the head badge off of the 2nd bike.

I was going to build it up for my friend.

Where are the Monark experts? I know someone here can decode the serial number

If that second digit is a 1, it's a 1946. -Adam

Yes it is a 1. It's a lot older than I thought it was. Thanks for the help!

I still have the wheels & prob the chain guard that came from this :wink:
