I'm looking for a nice black base with the chrome top for my x53. I know they're hard to find and pricey but it's a nice bike and I'd like to complete it. Thank you

Cleaned it up a little and serviced all the bearings.

Good evening, everybody! I'm looking for a front wheel to match this rear wheel. No s2 stamp leads me to believe this is an early lobdell wheel. I'd be happy to find a match. Patina would be great. I plan to disassemble, clean, and rebuild. Thank you

I've got a few of the later rat trap style springers and they're fairly heavy too. They also don't have much spring action. I've always enjoyed them more for their cool looks than for their characteristics. I'd never seen the combination of the beehive springer with the flightliner frame and...

I haven't done it in a while but I flew brushless electrics.

I'm definitely open to my options. I'll be looking at a lot of people's results and choosing the one I see that will best fit my desired results. I'm not looking for a shiny new bike but a nice clean bike. Steve

No sir! I'm going to take my time and research the best way to refurbish this one. Oxalic acid is looking promising but I'm not going to rush anything. This one will get a good cleaning and preservation. Put it back on some whitewalls. Steve

I saw this when I went to buy the stripped down jet flow on Friday. I couldn't stop thinking about it so I went back and got it today. It's crusty but still has a lot of life left in it. I'll be taking my time with this one. Steve

Thank you for all your replies. I already got busy mixing up some parts.

Thank you for your reply. I'll be flipping them back to their original position tomorrow. I like the stock look. Steve

I brought it home.

I thought there would be some clearance issues with the tank and springer. I have a golden flyer style chrome tank with the delta bug eye lights, which didn't originally have a bezel. I believe that one may work. An all original survivor jc Higgins jet flow is definitely a bucket list bike for...

Thank you for the good info! I knew the fork was somewhat desirable. I'll definitely be buying the whole bike although I have no immediate plans for the frame. My idea is to see if that fork will work with a later Murray built flightliner frame. I'm optimistic that there will be a decent hub too...

I wasn't clear at all when I started this thread. It should be a jc Higgins fork made by Murray. Thank you

Thank you. I guess I should have been more clear. It will definitely be going on a rat rod of sorts. I was mainly verifying that the bee hive had never been reproduced. I don't think I can really go wrong with the price though. Thank you

Can anybody tell me if this is an original fork? I believe it's a jet flow. I have the opportunity to buy this bike. Obviously the tank is missing and the wheels look to be incorrect. Nothing seems original besides possibly the fork. I'm considering buying it just for the fork. What would be a...

I'm looking for the hard to find seven style spaceliner tank for a 26" girls bike. Mine has the incorrect tank right now and I'd like to find the more original tank that this bike would have come with. Blue or teal would be a definite plus. I'd like to find a complete one in good shape. Does...

Thank you! I appreciate the compliments. I'm very happy with the way it turned out. I'm going to try and get my hands on some white western flyer grips and this one will be done. Will the fender still work if I reverse the fork drop outs?
