Old Whizzer any info ??

[JKT]

Hello, I don't know anything about Whizzers but ran across this one .. its said to be a 1947 ?? don't know for sure.. the only photos I have are these poor ones not really showing much in my opinion, but Whizzer people may be able to see more then I do..... it says its missing the belt/pully guard but there are no photos of the other side.. can anyone enlighten me about this particular one ??? any thoughts to its value ?? thanks, John

To me the bike itself is no Whizzer. The only things I see Whizzer related is of course the tank, the engine, all the controls, the rear wheel sheave, motor mount, rear stand and other odds and ends related to a Whizzer kit. The spokes to me do not look like the heavy .105's. Wheels are mis-matched. Looks to be a "J" model with the twist grip controls, maybe an "H" with twist controls. Can you find out serial number. I realize you could put a Whizzer kit on any bike. If the engine is not seized up to me the value is around $500.00. The value of the Whizzer parts only. I may out of it, I really haven't been around Whizzers for about 15 years, probably forgot more about them than I knew.

thank you... is that on top of the $1250.00 ?? or included in it ?? do you know where I could locate a original belt guard for it ??

I agree title is about $200.00. Also the echo pipe I did not see earlier. Bri is a little more generous than me, then again, he is more knowledgeable.
