Other Things Simplex / The next time you are in New Orleans
« on: September 12, 2014, 07:26:07 AM »
Go to the Tulane University library and check out the simplex collection there. It is free and open to the public. It is from Gary Wollards collection donated to the library by his family. It has a collection of advertisements, documents and blueprints. As I was viewing the blueprints I thought to myself that Treen himself had this in his hand and gave the approval for the part to be manufactured, it was pretty cool. Lots of cool history so the next time you visit I would highly recommend you check it out.

Frame, Tank, Seat, Controls, Etc / choke cable
« on: October 28, 2013, 04:23:55 PM »
Anyone ever do a repair to a choke cable before? My cable was cut short by the previous owner to fit an aftermarket carb and now that I have the correct carb it is too short. The cable goes in to the shaft and it looks to be crimped in it.

Frame, Tank, Seat, Controls, Etc / Marker light
« on: August 18, 2013, 07:03:04 PM »
My 52' has a small marker light on the end of the front fender and was wondering if this was a stock item or not? I have not seen any other Simplex bikes with this marker light. It looks to be factory by the hole in the fender after I removed it. It has a chrome body with a clear lens on one end and a red lens on the opposite with a single bulb.

Hi my name is Pete I am from New Orleans or NOLA as we call it here. I have a 52 simplex that I am currently working on. I am a car guy but have always had motorcycles. Simplex's are tough to come across here and you would think we would have a ton of them here but that's not the case. Anyway, I look forward to talking with you guys. Thanks!
