Good news, thank you. Are you at all interested in Suntour literature? I scanned a small 2 sided piece the other day and put it on flickr.

Here is a link to the images. https://www.flickr.com/photos/30894973@N04/tags/suntour/
It's just a simple setup guide but I thought it was worth 5min of scanning time.

You gonna eat that?
Interesting that the Marathon dropped a pound between 1985 and 1986 (by switching from 502 to 555 tubing).

That's the 1971 lightweight catalog. They did the same in 1970 - it's the standard catalog whittled down to the drop-bar offerings:
