  • Flywheel truing stand. Early type?

    Looking for some info about this H-D flywheel truing stand.

    Maybe one knows what year and/or part number it is as I can't read the casting number...

    The one I had in the past ( and unfortunately sold ) was the H-D type with an adjustable center for 3 positions , this one has a fixed center at one end.
    I guess it is VL or earlier ,just can't find any documentation

    Also a picture from an accessory or parts book would be welcome, again about this very type.

    Looks to be for the 45" flywheels.

      It looks very similar to the 11962-X
      Stand that appears in the 1929 Dealer Edition Accessories catalog. Your lock mechanism on the movable center is different though.

        The early (pre-twenties) stand differs (castings and indicators), and by the late 20s looked like the more modern type with three adjustment holes. With the advent of the flat twin, the singles of the mid twenties, and the new 45s and V models coming requiring differing lengths, it would most likely be an early to mid 20s type

          Just cleaned it up..seams that there is no step on the fixed cone so it won't hold .
          I guess they have ground off the stepped part in order to put a larger flywheel in but that won't work when you want to tighten the flywheel up.It's loose ..have to make a new stepped cone ,maybe it's the same as a later one.

          Only found info on these 2 flywheel stands..must be somewhere inbetween.

          It's not in this one.. do you have a picture?

          never mind!, 11962X is the one with the 3 positions on the " fixed" cone!

            Can anyone give me the total lenght of an assembled 45 ( wl wla wlc ) crankshaft in order to determine the minimum necessary distance between the centers of the stand?

              Approximately 9".

                    That is listed in my 21 Accessory Catalog as the new style flywheel truing stand.
