arguably the rarest of all, shortline10 come in here

[trizilla]

pics of what is in my opinion the rarest off all 90/110 front ends and another goodie that you wont find every day:naughty:

[atcrider1]

im not trying to be jerk, but whats so special about the seat and case?

that front end is awesome

[trizilla]

nothing special, im new to posting these pics and they kinda got in there. well, the case is nothing special but search the boards and count how many of those old upholstered seats are still around.

[trizilla]

i should add that the front end is complete, i have the other shock off cleaning it.

[harryredtrike]

wow very cool.want to sell it?

[trizilla]

i guess, for the right price.

[atcrider1]

oh OK, i seen the seat in another thread, i think the material used looks sweet

[shortline10]

You know trizilla I have first dibbs on it LOL.

[Vealmonkey]

I recognize those bits. I would like that seat though.

[the great gazoo]

No fair! I only see 2 pics of the front end, where's the seat? I do recognize that rim, though.

[Shorty]

I have been looking for one of these front ends for a whole now. Wanna sell it? And those red turbo rims too?

[Vealmonkey]

That front end has been sold to another member on here way before this and maybe the rims too, I'm not sure.

[3wheelmecca]

Is that leading link style? Damn!

[shortline10]

Man I wish I knew who has that fancy Ruttryder LOL .

[Vealmonkey]

I don't really know if you would call it leading link. They are the first suspension front ends for the 90 that I remember. I don't remember other front suspension kits hitting the market before them. And like someone I was having a conversation earlier today with reminded me, they weren't really the greatest or cushiest riding by far, but they were somewhat better than no suspension. Some people raced them, but most racers stuck with aftermarket non suspended front ends. Most people went with beefier front ends and some who had the extra dough, went with the chromoly front ends to save a little weight, but alot of the stock front forks buckled in tangles with other racers trikes. And some of the aftermarket front ends had provisions of a second and even third location to move your front axle farther forward of fork center. I just traded off a really nice steel 2 positon set of chrome front forks to a member on here for a deal on an aftermarket 350x extended swingarm. Also the Rutt Ryders main claim to fame was as the front end of a certain magazines project trike that had been seen in these forums many moons ago.

[Shorty]

Oh it has been sold again? Arrg. Well Trizilla can you tell me who you sold this front end to?

:postwhore:postwhore:postwhorewhen these front ends first hit the public...they were home built and the idea was taken from the SACHS motorcycle SUSPENSION

and yes Vealmonkey, your info is right on.....racers prefered the rigid front end at that time.....and those front ends were trailprojunk,trailpro manus were just trying to cash in quick to the General Joe Blow public on a home garage idea that caught a brief wind of popularity


who's going to be the first flunkie to start offering new kits on this self annionted rarity of trickness in the vaccum of authority?:banned::banned::banned:


wrench heads...focus your attention on this quote....

you simply bent the existing stock forks, made the hoop, and mounted upper shock brackets according to what size shocks you intended on using

whoolaa!!!!:welcome:

[shortline10]

I had a feeling that they used stock OEM forks to make those ruttryders suspension kits . I studied mine very close and it matches up exactly with oem but with the bends and brackets . Thanks for the insight .
