John and Mike:
Thanks for the replies, I'll have Frank in Germany check with Mark E
first then contact either of you for either a picture or to buy Mike's
extra set if Mark E comes up dry.
You guys are great!

I sold 3 sets to some of the guys on this list who had nothing but good to say about them. I swapped 2 sets for parts and kept a set for my bike. I could have more made, but they're require a bit of an investment on my part. I'd have to get at least 6 more sets made to make it somewhat cost effective. My asking price for a set, which is a pair of spring cups and a pair of front hinges, powdercoated in black, is $90 US. They will be exact reproductions of the originals except that the quality is better - no weld spatter, sharp edges, etc. If Frank and others are interested I'm willing to move forward and have more made.

Turned out to be a rigid mount so I have an extra set. Contact John to see if he has some he can sell or send the measurements. If not, then I can sell my set if the fellow is interested. These are very high quality and cost me $90.00 plus shipping. Oh, btw, John also has pictures of these he can email. Mike |
