6.5 hp engine with electric starter
« on: March 18, 2016, 01:33:23 PM »
Hey Fella's
Can anyone of you tell me if a 6.5 slant engine with electric start fit in a Simplex frame?

Thanks
Reggie
 
Hello everyone,
Glad to see someone start a new Simplex site.  The old Simplex Collectors site just quit.
I own 3 Simplex Motorcycles:1948 I just completed restoration, 1953 basket case,1956 Restored currently in a museum. I also restored a James ML and a 1954 Triumph Terrier.

Rick no matter how many times I view your 3 wheeler I'm always blown away by it's minimalist beauty. Super job.
