Fender/tail light question

Post by jmn » Thu Oct 16, 2014 8:24 pm

Will do, G-man. They are quite rusty/crusty....is it worth the cost of shipping them overseas?

on another note - I was told my tail light bracket isn't correct, but it looks to me (after comparing some other bike photos) like the bracket is okay but mounted higher on the fender than normal, giving it a weird angle. It looks to be the original mounting holes. Anyone ever see this situation before?

Thanx,
JMN

Just had a look at those shocks. They are correct for your bike but not the very early type I was looking for. I have just restored a couple of equally crusty sets of these for myself and Alan.
