  Good question Sverre - I've been wondering the same thing
myself.  I have a De Luxe rider's handbook.  It's for a
short
tank but the early style (no fender valances, toolbox on top

of tank, etc.).  It has about a page covering the Simms unit
ut about three pages covering the Splitdorf unit, leading
me to conclude the Splitdorf (most likely the model S) had
replaced the Simms by then.  When is the question.  Perhaps 
925 or 1926?  Interesting to hear other's thoughts ... Perry

Happy new year Gentlemen,
could someone enlighten me in what magnetos where used on
what year De-luxe Hendersons.
Mine is a 1927 and this have a Simms C4. They early owner of
y bike allso had a 1924, did he take the Simms from this
and added it to the 1927?? If looking at sale flyer pics it
seems the two last years De-luxes used Berling or Splitdorf?
r is this Bosch. It is for sure not Simms.

Look forward to learn.
Sverre
