For Sale 1947 Whizzer H, SW Ohio

Hello! I was given this Whizzer and a new-in-the-box Orline Chicken Power motor.

I, quite frankly have too many projects.

I'd like to sell both. I have attempted to get the Whizzer running but have no spark. I have installed new tires, greased the wheel bearings, installed an electronic ignition and cleaned it up. It appears to be a 'rattle-can' restoration at some point, but is presentable and with a little elbow grease should clean up nicely.
I have magnetism in both of the flywheel magnets, the smaller of the two is drastically less than the larger one. I have 400 Milliohms through the coil. I'm sharing a link to a gallery for you to look at the project.

The Orline Chicken motor comes with the fuel tank, exhaust and other parts and appears to be a front wheel mounted friction motor. The pull cord is not retracting and I have not investigated why. The box comes complete with what appears to be mounting/wiring instructions, tensioner and requisite mouse nest.

I honestly don't know how to price this, and am open to offers. I've seen non-runners in worse shape listed for $1500, I've seen people asking $3500.
I'm just interested in selling it soon, so shall we start at $1000 for both? Please tell me if I'm out of line on pricing.



Thanks!!

We don't allow phone numbers or other personal information in the open forum, we reserve that for the DM or Private Message service we provide in the forums.

The reason why is being a world wide forum, we also have world wide spammers and scammers that love to have personal information like phone numbers to absolutely spam and scam you to death so for this reason I have removed it...Anyone interested in this will reply to you via the Private Message system...Thank you.

The bike is worth your asking price in parts alone. Good features such as carter carb, air filter, front hub brake. While the case shows an 'H" motor, it has a newer J or later jug on it (five fins).

Good luck with the sale.

Make sure you're not using the condenser connected to the electronic module.

No condenser. Thanks.

Spun it with a drill, got a weak spark, then the crank bolt snapped. By the look of the bolt, someone probably fractured it by using an impact. Reassembled the covers, put the old points in a bag and stuffed them into the frame. Interested in selling as-is. Leading magnet has decent magnetism, trailing magnet has very little. I'm thinking this is the issue. Even ohm readings through the coil, so that's probably not the issue.

Make me an offer, come and get it!
