Ha . That blue thing doesn't look like it'll fit anywhere on your Simplex . ;)
Nice paint , though .
And , what's the story with the decals?

I bought the rubber foot pads off Ebay and the guy threw in the box a decal.

Ha . I think maybe he's just trying to even out the tire wear . ;)
I recall launching over the bars when I was about 6 years old . Not something I ever wanted to do again .
