Hey guys!
« on: May 06, 2017, 02:21:32 PM »
hey guys, New member here in Texas. I became interested in Simplex after my Dad told me stories about having a couple when he was young and seeing them at swap meets. My dad is into Cushman and I enjoy looking all the old bikes pre 1960. I have been looking for an old simplex servi-cycle to restore but haven't had any luck. I cant afford a high dollar bike that is already restored. I would like to have a simplex that is mostly their and less motor would be fine to. I was hoping to find something for under a grand but since I don't know a lot about Simplex I'm not sure if that would be possible. I live about 15 miles south of fort worth and would drive about 4 hours in any direction for a good deal. Please reply or private message me if you know of anything. Thanks, Charley

Thanks Pete, I have been checking Craigslist and their is only one which I think has a
rebuilt original motor and is more than I can spend right now. I'm not in a big hurry but
thanks for sharing searchtempest as I had never heard of that search engine but will
definitely being using from now on. Thanks again
