Simplex Motorcycle

[BPerry2]

I purchased a Simplex frame from a gentleman about 3 months ago when I saw it in the bed of a truck with scrap metal heading to the scrap yard. Today I purchased a mostly complete (minus the tank, carb, and lights), but somewhat rusty Simplex bike in which I plan to combine the two and restore. The problem is there isn't a readily available source of information (ie manuals or parts list) to know exactly what parts I need to acquire for a full restoration. I joined this site hoping to network with some Simplex enthusiasts who have some knowledge and ideals that will help with this restoration.

Hi

I love the Simplex. My neighbor restored 2 of them a few years ago.

There's a little Simplex info on here.
a quick search of "simplex" brought up these,

Thanks Dave, I've been searching the internet for about 3 months gathering information. I figured it was about time to join this website and network with others smarter than me.
