   Post on Simonini engines in Two Strokes

   By Good old number 29, posted 21 January

   In anticipation of receiving my first shipment of Simonini engines, I thought I’d start this thread. 
   I currently have four Victor 2 Super motors being prepped with different gear ratios and exhausts. I have a mix of other models shipping with them, including the Victor 1, which could also be used in a lightweight Kitfox. 
   I’ll be posting pics, taking measurements, weighing the different motors and exhaust systems on a certified scale, and measuring thrust. If I get the chance to put them on a dyno, I will. So far, I’ve only found shops with rear-wheel dynos, within flying distance. 
   So, check back in the next month, or two. If you have any questions or suggestions, let me know what’s on your mind. I want to have full, complete, and accurate information. 
   Of course, I’ll be writing up the full details of installation and performance on the Kitfox. 
   If you’re interested in purchasing a Simonini engine, they are available on my website, with more information at straight-aero.com.

   Post on Simonini Victor 2 Super in For Sale and wanted, you got it, I want it

   By Good old number 29, posted 13 January

   Here is the straight deal: I have been authorized as an official Simonini distributor. My first order has been paid for, and will soon be paddling on up to Alaska. The order includes several 110 HP Victor 2 Supers, with gearboxes of various ratios, 54 hp Victor 1 Super, Mini 2 Plus, Mini 4, and Simonini 250. These are all brand new, straight from the factory. I’m expecting delivery in 6-8 weeks, given ocean freight timing and any possible delays. 
    
   As of today, my website is online. Straight-aero.com.  
   I’m allowing pre-order purchases, so people can buy now, and aren’t limited to stock on hand, or to what’s already on order. I’m willing to make some deals, in order to start recouping my costs, and so I can get together another decent sized order, to ship. I’d like to get as many orders as possible, in the next 4-6 weeks, and put together another shipment, and keep prices down.
    
   The website is new, and a maybe little clunky, but it works. I have the twin piped Victor 2 Super marked at $9,000. Single exhausts cost a little more. Look closely at the exhausts, so you know what you’re getting. They might all need a little twist to fit in your Kitfox or Avid. That price is basically equal to the factory price, of 8,700 Euro. 
    
   Like I said, and as some of you already know, I’m ready to make some deals on early orders. Maybe you’d like a package deal, and get free shipping on a Victor 2, if you buy the radiator, expansion tank, and motor mount with it. I might be inclined to do that, if you ask.
    
   Just let me know what you’re interested in, and help spread the word. I think that it’s the right time for Simonini, in America, and I’m excited to see those first engines arrive.
