Very cool indeed!

I've got violet '56 model(different decal package) but it doesn't have the locking fork feature.

Hmmm........ I thought the locking fork feature was just a phantom thing, never realized lightweights had this option. Learn something every day, that's why I keep coming back here to learn.
