    Primary Cover Wanted:

    image_52384.jpg This cover is an aftermarket primary cover that was made in the 70's to make your electric start Harley Davidson FL look like a kick start bike. I am ;looking for a similar cover to this only it has a bearing support provision where the yellow circle is.

    Thanks Jerry

      Actually Jerry, we have a '75 FX that we're trying to put a chain drive back on from a belt. We have a cover for an FXE that may work for you. Not sure if it is HD, but I'll take a pic soon. PM me.

        Yes If it is a tin primary similar to what I posted I for sure would be interested.

            But thanks for thinking of me and that new one might still be the road I take. Jerry

              I'm digging up the one we have Jerry. It is natural aluminum as stock. Give me a day to dig it up before you go to fleabay. I'll send it to you for postage.I would be happy if you can use it.

                  So, Sorry Jerry, I have to be the dumbest member in the AMCA,,I finally dug up the cover we have and I should have taken a better look beforehand. This one is cast and more of a Shovel cover with the chain inspection and clutch opening. Also as it turns out, it fits our FX and it is the inner primary that we have that wont work with this cover.
