S&S balance kit. Has some spots of rust as shown but never used- nothing cracked or broken. These parts came from an old dealership inventory- some missing the original boxes, part numbers, and some showing 40+ years of age, rust, corrosion- as shown, but have never been used. Sorry, I'm not taking any precision measurements or searching part numbers to try and figure out specific year/model fitments, etc.
Sometimes I sell nos items from old dealerships, collectors, etc. These pieces have never been used, but maybe not as shiny new as the day they were manufactured. Some may show expected signs of age: discoloration, fading, rust, scuffs, scratches, handling, storage, etc., but I do not consider it "damage" unless it is cracked or broken, etc.- which I will clearly state and show in the pictures. Some items may not have original labels/part numbers and I can't promise specific fitment. I do not know exact "correct" year/model fitment or all possible custom applications for these parts. I don't take precision measurements, check clearances, or make promises of "condition"- too many opinions of what is good or bad. I'm no expert and sometimes just guessing in the title/description but I will not refund based on "correctness". I try to show plenty of pictures- please look carefully, and please research to make sure it is what you need before bidding.
I have a lot of old collectibles,memorabilia,parts,etc. that I sell on Ebay regularly. I really appreciate your business,but please do not ask me for specific items- I do not sell off Ebay and I do not have any type of inventory list.
No Reserve No Buy it Now No Trades,No haggling or off-ebay "deal making" and I prefer not to end auctions early.
I do not represent any dealership or aftermarket parts company and cannot offer warranty or refunds -no returns.
Combined shipping- I don't get a "deal" from USPS. I am charged for the actual weight/size of these packages just like everybody else, but I will help pay part of the cost to show appreciation for multiple purchases. Maybe not a huge savings, but should still help. If you purchase multiple items, please wait for me to send you an invoice with discounted total. I will discount shipping for multiple purchases on auctions ending within 48 hours. Not being pushy about payment- just gets really confusing trying to keep up with buyers wanting to run a tab for a week at a time.
Please read EVERYTHING before bidding-THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDS. Sorry for the long blah,blah,blah disclaimer but since I've been selling on Ebay, I've discovered that there are many sensitive, sometimes childish, and even dishonest people out there. I'm writing all this stuff to let you know up front, so there is no room for hurt feelings or disappointment. Some sellers might try to get rich on their one and only prized possession that they've kept under their pillow for 20 years. I've got tons of old parts, and get more regularly. I'm not desperate to try and squeeze every penny possible out of one crappy little part, therefore, I have no need to give a deceptive description or wordy sales pitch to try and make everything sound like a diamond.
Sorry, I don't take measurements or try to guess tolerances, spacing, wear, fitment, or make any promises of "condition" with parts that are this old. To avoid argument, just plan on doing whatever reconditioning, refitting, rebuilding, etc., that is normally advised with old used parts. I don't try to give every possible detail or describe every inch of these old parts. Some have been cleaned, stripped, painted, rebuilt, etc. and stored carefully for a long time, but many are still old and dirty with expected discoloration, nicks and scuffs- possibly need for repair/restoration. I will state any obvious damage that I see, but I can't garantee measurements, fitments, performance, etc. I might offer my opinion about these parts, but I can't give refunds for stuff this old.
Auction title does not promise exact fitment-sometimes just guessing. No tricks-just don't know how else to list something if I don't know for sure what it is. The numbers sometimes at the end of the title are my inventory numbers.
I apologize for the lack of detailed description. Not trying to be rude or purposely vague like some other sellers, but to be honest, I just don't have time to write a history book, or answer a zillion questions. I don't know what half this junk fits anyway. Pleeeease don't bomb me with questions like "Will it fit my 1963 ELULFLHVLFXWRXLHCHKWLD KAWANUCKLEPANSTERSHOVELSUZUKIHEAD?" Some of this stuff is very rare and in really nice shape for it's age, but some might consider it junk. I can't possibly please everyone with my opinion of "condition". There is no such thing as a perfect used part, especially if it is as old as some of these. I will state any noticeable flaw that I see, but I'm not holding it under a spotlight at 16 different angles. There is also a chance that there is a flaw that I have missed. Sometimes I'm in a hurry, and sometimes I don't always know where to look for the most common defects. Maybe even something you find after cleaning more thoroughly,but STILL No Refunds. Again, not trying to screw anyone, but my x-ray vision is getting a little rusty these days.
Some parts are rusty, crusty, worn, tarnished, scratched, bent, or broken, but maybe still worth fixing/restoring. I don't spend hours polishing or inspecting with a magnifying glass. I'm basically just blowing the dust off, wiping the goop off, and listing as is. Not going to argue about the difference in the meaning of "scuff","scrape","scratch","spot","rust","pitting","dent",or "ding". I don't use tricky wording to fool anyone, but I can't possibly know everyones perception of these words.
I prefer not to promise specific fitments. If you buy a part and find out that it does not fit, or is not in the condition the you "assumed", I'm genuinely sorry, but also giving you plenty of warning and explanation. I am not an expert, machinist, trained mechanic, or Harley historian. I don't have the knowledge or the time to list exact year/model fitments, take measurements, look up part numbers, etc. Please keep in mind that Harleys cast/stamped numbers are not always the same as the actual part number, even though they appear very similar.
I realize that some of these parts can be very rare and expensive. Again, my apologies for having little knowledge or time to give more detail, but I don't always know how to tell a reproduction part from an original. I know this is very important,but hopefully you will recognize it from the pictures. I cannot offer refunds, so please look closely before bidding.
I do not have a shop open for public viewing. Please do not ask if I have specific parts. I have tons of this old stuff, and will be listing it as I can get to it. I've owned Harleys for over 40 years, and don't even remember what all I have until I open the next box. I've stored some of these parts for many years-some came from my own bikes, swap meets, shop buy-outs,and some from other friends collections, but I can't remember where I got each and every part or what bike it came off of. Some have already been stripped, blasted, welded, or maybe in the process of being fixed, then set aside unfinished. Sorry, but I have no way of knowing the specific history of each part.
I know, I know-Everyone's motorcycle is a "show bike"-if you need something flawless, then you might not want a used part. My idea of "good" might be "bad" to you. I will not waste time with a zillion emails arguing and listening to threats of bad feedback, or playing word games. First of all, I don't care about bad feedback. Write whatever you want. The liars and idiots always stand out like a sore thumb anyway. I think the feedback system could be a good thing, but is abused regularly by crybabies wanting to throw a temper tantrum.
I'm just one person selling parts. I do not have a "shipping department" with a hundred little elves. I'm not a professional photographer. I don't have a team of computer experts and I still type with 2 fingers. I make mistakes and get behind schedule sometimes, but as you can see from my feedback, most buyers are pleased, and I am willing to work out differences if necessary. I don't sit at the computer 24 hours a day just waiting to answer your needs, and I don't run the post office the minute your payment shows up, so please take this into consideration if I'm a little late replying emails or shipping.
Sorry, I don't give out my phone number. Most of the time people just want to call to try and talk me into ending the auction early, or "work out a deal"- usually ends up with hearing your life story and the cool chopper you had "back in the day", or everything you're "going to do" to your bike. I'm not really as big of a butthead as it might sound, but I sell on Ebay to get the best price without having to go through all that talking, haggling, negotiating, etc. Over 25 years selling on Ebay- I simply don't have the time or patience for long conversations and emails anymore. Ebay is open to the whole world 24 hrs. an day,7 days a week, and I get loads of emails daily. Actually, I would probably enjoy chatting with most of you,but it's just not possible.
