Picked up my 57 Simplex today. It appears ´original´ and is in great condition, not perfect, but really good. I need some hints on how to start this thing, on the oil mix (I did 25:1 just to be sure) and how to adjust the kick lever so it engages before 5 teeth go by! Also a source for new tank decals of those long ago years.
To get the wife´s okay, I had to agree to sell my 800+ lb Goldwing upon which, at 78 I can hardly get my leg up.
