Hello all. I am a newbie to the simplex scene. Recently I took in a 1954 servi-cycle for repair and restoration. Normally I fix mowers and such, but was thrilled to take in one of these beautiful machines as a change of pace. I would love to show you all it and post a few pics but I don't know how to "compress" the stupid pictures. I've lost an extensive post 3 times trying. Help!
Mr. Soucheck has been wonderful at helping me get started on this project. I have a motor that runs and a drive train that works however I notice play in the flywheel end of the motor after it is hot. Plus it bogs out and quits. Hoping its just bearings. However, when it is ice cold (Michigan) everything is tight as normal. Yikes.
More shortly folks. I'll consult someone on the picture thing so I can contribute a little better here. Gotta go drink a beer and lower the ol blood pressure after the computer has won Round 1.LOL-Ted Wagner, Manistee, MI
