Need to get a pic up...but I put my new springer forks on yesterday and they are awesome! :) They WERE from a girl's bike...but I made them work by using a spare bearing retainer from another bike and grounding the inside thread down smooth...then sliding it down and putting another threaded...

Wellllll...Im not 100% sure if they were from a girl's or boy's bike...guess Ill find out soon enough :shock: Where there is a will...there is a way! I just got in from working on her again...put a rusty Hawthorne rear fender on and used the rear one on it in the pic and did some cutting and...
