A little more work done finally, the spring had me put this on hold while I did spring stuff...
I had the forks made by Forking by Frank in Indiana, he can make forks for anything. The original ones were pitted beyond use. I used aircraft paint stripper on the painted parts, prepped and painted them anew and set individual 1/4 inch ball bearings on lower and upper races. Tires/wheels mounted for stability...they will be refreshed as well soon.
I also restored the air filter system. New filters and housing mounted to the steed.
