Buy, Sell, Trade / Rounding up some parts
« on: March 02, 2013, 09:52:57 PM »
Hey everyone, I've been doing some research and trying to find the parts I'm missing for my 55 simplex. I called Wayne and he seems to have what I'm needing, and was very helpful, just wanted to see if anyone had anything they were wanting to get rid of. I'm needing a carb and breather, kicker and kicker gear, exhaust, the whole clutch/drive pulley thingy. I have a magnito, but none of the internal parts like the points and point cam or coils and condensor, and what ever else is stuffed in behind that thing. Also needing a tank bracket the right mag cover, compression cover,(I have the internal piece, just need the outer cover) I have a spoked rear wheel, but IT is missing the brake assembly. I don't plan on doing much til summer time when I will have more funds. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Yes, my wife and I have a vinyl sign business. What I would make would be a vinyl sticker, not a "water slide". I read in another post that some don't like the vinyl b/c it may not hold up to gas spillage, and may seem too thick. I'm not worried about that b/c I can alwas cut another, but I can see why others would want the water slide. If anyone is wanting decals or even simplex stickers for bumper stickers or window graphics, I would be willing to see what I can do, I can cut big or small. I would also like to see some big, bold pics of any other decals that simplex had. I've seen the winged decal on ebay and other places, but can't find a good enough picture to duplicate it. The pic that was posted just ahead of this post should work perfect. Let me know.

Any one have pics of original tank decals. I have a 55 simplex and would like to see what was original to that bike as well as other years. I have a vinyl cutter and would like to cut replicas of the originals out of vinyl. I can usually duplicate these if I have a good solid close up picture. I've seen alot of pics on the forum, but haven't fould a good close up pic. Thanks, James

Ok, I talked to Wayne,(thanks Mike for the info) he said he was gonna have most everything I need. All I have left for parts are what you see in the photos. I know I'm gonna need an exhaust, rear hub assembly, carb, kick start, the drive pully or clutch, not sure which, proper mag cover. How about some advise from the experts, what do you see missing????

I traded a Honda rebel for the bike about 20 yrs ago. I have owned 2 simplex's in the past. The first one was titled and was a 47 I believe.That one I bought with my brother, and the one I have now I bought myself. The sad thing is that the one I have now, I took for a test ride before I bought it. Both bikes got stored together in basket case form, and my brother helped himself to the older one when I was away, taking what he thought was the older one with it's parts. Unfortunately he got away with some of my parts as well. Missing exhaust, rear hub assembly, carb, and not sure everything else. This one had a centrufical clutch and also had lawnmower points in it that were rigged up. At the time I thought it had been modified because it wasn't direct drive like the older one. I will be sending some pics shortly. Thank you for your help.

Hi, I'm new to the forum and have a few questions. I have a simplex and I'm not sure what year it is. The frame # is 10106, and the engine # is M17958B. I would appreciate any help I could get. I'm missing some parts and trying to research weather or not it would be worth restoring. Thank you.
