Some DeT related, some not.

EARLY Edelbrock 4V intake for 2V or Aussie heads (No 4F2V or whatever type
of designation on it, jus sez EDELBROCK in curved pattern.), VGC used. Also
have the choke heater element that fits in the intake.

3310-3 Holley 650CFM vac secondaries (newer version), manual choke, new
chrome fuel rail piece still in package,  (Carb would need the bowl gaskets
freshened....), plus a chrome air cleaner.
$250 for the intake and carb etc, plus shipping to ya. If I have gaskets,
I'll toss them in too.

I can get ya pictures if needed.

No more DeT content.

1980 Harley "Sturgis" edition motorcycle. Have two bikes, can't even get
one out of the garage it seems, so why have two???  Plus I could use the
elbow space.  Less than 18K miles on this bike that was innovative in a
couple of ways!  First Harley, other than way back in the 20's or so, with
two belts! Yes, this has a primary belt!  Super smooth ride as a result!
80 inch motor, stock as far as I know, with an HD Screamin' Eagle carb on
it. Dual exhaust (Stock was a 2-1 config). Has kick and electric, but I'd
recommend keeping a good battery in it!  Kick starting this bike is an
adventure!  It has the highest compression ratio of any bike Harley made
for the consumer!!!  Transmission also features slightly different gearing,
to put gear changes closer together. This was first done in 1980.

It has mag rims, new rubber. Black paint scheme with orange trim. Original
paint, small doink in RH tank from previous owner who fell over trying to
push start bike on a hill in front of his house....  Some small paint chips
at leading edge of front fender.  I have new decals for: front forks
"STURGIS", tanks (minus AMF logo), and the chain, er belt guard  "TWIN BELT
DRIVE".  These decals are getting scarce. You can still get gold ones, not
orange!

I have a new factory seat and a few trim pieces on this bike too. (Factory
seat IS the most comfortable....) Owners manual, shop manual. Cover. New
primary cover (black) in the box still. Original air cleaner and a carb
somewhere, plus other new parts I bought for it along the way.

This is an early edition, which makes it more unusual, as it does not have
an inner primary cover with slotted holes to adjust the front belt tension
with. As a result, it differs slightly from the promo pic's.  The theme of
the original bike was black.  Everything.  Deviations are: a chrome(natural
aluminum) oil bag trim piece, a chrome coil cover, and a chrome horn cover.
 I was able to get one of these pieces new in black, but the other would
need to be painted as it is no longer available in black, IF you wanted to
go the extra bit to make the bike look like the photos....  but I wouldn't.

It is a very nice stock looking bike. 3.5 gallon Fat Bob tanks, with
factory drag bars, stock mirrors.... It gets noticed for what it is and
what it isn't!

I want $10K for the works.  If I have to sell it thru a dealer, it will go
up to $11.111K to cover the dealer's cut. AND, it probably won't include
all the extra bits!  So, why look like all the other "blockheads" out
there... ride a manly bike, ride a Shovelhead!!!!!!

Pic's available.

Thanks!
