Frame, Tank, Seat, Controls, Etc / Virgin Gas Tanks!!!
« on: July 19, 2016, 08:18:17 AM »
  That's right folks Virgin Steel Gas Tanks soon to be on the open market. Here's something I've been trying to do for the pass two years. I would say the late night meetings unmarked bags of money and the favors called in my have been a good thing. I hope as I am typing this the molds should be being filled with hot steel. Here's a photo of the molds. ;D

Sorry if they are large these were sent to me by the foundry owner.  ???

Other Things Simplex / Help for old headlights ?
« on: September 03, 2014, 07:27:30 PM »
I have found some stuff that may help with the old dingy reflectors we all have. Its made to redo the finish on silverware that is true silver plated items. So I pick up a small bottle (not to pricey) to try on a reflecto.  Heres a before and after photo a a pic on the stuff. Medallion liquid silver lotion. I think it helps get the shine back without getting it re plated.  What do y'all think ?  ???

Engine & Transmission / Nova ignition
« on: July 01, 2014, 08:55:47 AM »
Hey has anyone had luck with the nova ignition?  I thought I had it wooped but I lost the battle.  Set my motor on my work bench and it looks like it fires every time a magnet passes over. Witch is twice a revaluation thats firing top and bottom of the stroke. Not good seeing its pulling in freash fuel on the way down. So if anyone has woop this problem let me know. Going back to points for now.  :'(

Don't know if y'all have seen that bike there calling a simplex. EBay # 171036170196 looks really weird.

Restoration Projects / Special Tools needed that can be LENT
« on: May 06, 2013, 08:38:56 AM »
 I am going to start this cause I know how hard and costly these bikes can be. So if you are will to loan something out or need something this may be what your looking for.

The rules are simple:

     #1. Take care of the item as if it was yours.
    #2. Send it back when you're done
   #3 Sign the travel log to show where its been.
Here's. My item I have a Professional Beugler Striper.

Other Things Simplex / lighting ?
« on: March 20, 2013, 08:11:08 AM »
Ok Guys that can look deep into things here's a task. While surfing ebay today I kick up a roostertail to find a lighting coils for sale that looks like it needs closer eyes on it. The ebay # 400066667199 lists it as a scooter lighting coil for like 10.00 dollars. He's in Calif and also has other coils for phelon but does not mention simplex. He also list a Clinton folding scooter I think is cool but has a 800.00dollar price tag. But if someone could check these out they may be 12volt output that fixes the lighting problems we have. Just food for thought.  ???

Engine & Transmission / motor question
« on: February 27, 2013, 08:53:47 AM »
Ok Guys here's a question? How much do these engines vibrate? I been having some bad vibrations while running the motor. Last night I ran it a minute or two without the tyranny and it just about took the bike apart. There was a time or two it tuned to where it didn't vibrate as much but had to stop before things started falling off. Any thoughts?  ???
