Gooey
You are mostly correct. I've bid on the bike for spares for my Woodsman. Everything spells Wassell except the tank and front wheel. I can't tell about the pipe. I noticed that the 1st day it was posted. Good eye.

Gooey,
Sorry! I was reading your post and fighting with the dog at the same time. I thought you were refering to the Wassell(?). But you are right, looks like it, sorta.

Gooey, That's got to be a frist on this end! Normally one of our fellow poggers keep bidding me, causing the prices to skyrocket. It happened to me again today. I want to Thank You for that and I respect you for it.
the favor will be reurned many fold.

Ive been studying this American eagle thing,, ad it is quite dif after all ... so, this thread started by a lack of looking more closely ..... it appears to be a simple case of two co.'s having very similar ideas,, OR .. STOLEN ideas ..... anyway... was just a curiosity thing ...

I seem to remember that an American Eagle has a connection to the Yankee motorcycle.
Remember the Yankee 500cc twin, endoro?
