When I go to a swap meet and I see original Harley-Davidson boxes, I always have to check 'em out. If the part number ends in -52, -54, -57 or -58 I get all excited ! Maybe an NOS Sportster part????
I like any original Harley part....especially the type of parts that "wear out" after awhile. If the part number ends in "P" I think it's a Sprint part (I call it).
I found this one . . . opened the box and had to make an offer on this original NOS Big Twin 4-Speed Kicker Gear. The price was right - and it went right-in-my-pocket. A guy can build an entire motorcycle after buying just one particular part that sets the stage - and taints your interest.
Now I'll have to look for a nice transmission case, mainshaft, some gears . . . and build a transmission. Or just put it in a box until the one in my bike wears out? Probably a smarter thing to do . . .
