BALLOON:   Horn Switch removal 36 Scwinn posted by: Craig on 7/18/2005 at 6:45:14 PM
I have a 36' Scwinn Motorbike with horn button in the handlebars. It does not work and want to pull the switch out of the handlebars to service it. Being all original, I don't want to cut the bars. Any idea how to get the switch assembly out for servicing???

I just got what I believe to be an early 50's columbia skyhawk. I can't find any info on this bike and can't find the serial number on the bike so I can see exactly how old it is. I'd also like to know about how much it's worth.
Thanks
