New Year’s Resolution # 999
I really must give the shed a long overdue clear out this year.
While looking for something else this afternoon I came across this in a box. It’s a brand-new Simson moped engine. I have never owned a bloody Simson moped, so why do I have this?
Sure it's a Simson? Looks more like an MZ TS 250/1 to me. Note the round 'lump' where they moved the oil filler from the earlier models as it would covered by the angled carb. (OK, I'll get my anorak!)
You have that for the same reason I have a muffler for a Suzuki 600/750....well it was only ten dollars at the local flea market this weekend.I have never owned a Suzuki, but I'm sure it will come in handy...

ReplyDeleteIt's physically smaller than a TS motor, that's why I reckon that it's a Simson.
