Schwinn Motorbike

[BikemanDan]

I have this beautiful (to me! Haha) Motorbike. I believe it's a '33-35 Schwinn short frame. It measures 22" top bar, 18" seat post to middle of crank the head badge screw holes are about 2 3/4" apart any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

thanks for the advice, still trying to figure out how to navigate the Cabe. the bike being a balloon tire would not be pre 1933, but its worth a shot. thanks again!

Nice bike.
The truss forks look like A&S built, but not sure about the frame. I agree that the frame and forks look like they would accommodate 28” wheels. Better pictures of some of the details might help; (also the serial numbers).

Thanks! Sure looks A&S; and serial number 458,662 appears about ~1931(?).
Maybe post on the A&S serial numbers thread (linked below).
