Hi:

FYI. Photos of my 1950 (?) NOS Travis Bike Motor mounted on an early-1940s Columbia Bicycle (w/ original paint). This is the 1.0 hp version of the motor. Bike is equipped with a 1948 Sturmey-Archer expander brake.

Hi Fred:

Thank you for your comment. I don't ride it, yet. I obtained a operation manual recently and hope to try to get it running soon.

Tom:
I took my engine apart, no problem. Cleaned everything and installed new bearing, seal & gaskets, but had no spark. Found a new coil and was able to make it fit. Started easily. would be pleased to talk with you about it whenever you want. 215-840-8189. Might you be able to somehow scan and send me a copy of the operator's manual? Or,I will pay to copy and mail cost.

Hello Tom:
Where did you get the operation manual for the Travis? I sure would like to get one as I am having some difficulties with my carburetor.
Please help.
Thank you,
Fred
