I've searched google images, I've found a few different models under the name, Skyrider, Discoverer, Satellite, Jet Pilot. I know it's from the 58-63 era.
Some have the star chainring, some don't and the chain guard I have was seen only on one of them.
So, I'm guessing mine is a Jet Pilot, going by this picture? Looks like its got the same rear rack as mine too..Though I noticed the cantilever tubes on mine have a shorter distance between them and the head tube. My bike also came with a standard sized 26'' x 1.75'' Western Flyer tire on an original looking wheel.
Found this ad too on the same site that above picture was from. I see the ad mention a Sky King as well, on the bottom. Which, judging by pictures it's a more Deluxe version of the Sky Rider?
Building this bike up, so I'd really like to find a tank for it...and it be the proper one to it.
