The Springer front started in the Early 1900's but I cant find the same style as in the pix.

HD had a smiler setup but still used the coil spring in the early 1900's on the sport.

I know! It's killing me! I've seen a similar front end on several bikes but not the same. Btw according to their website,1902 first "motorized" bicycle and that wasn't even a Triumph motor but one made elsewhere.
