1957 Sportster Questions

Postby GaryM2 » Mon Nov 07, 2016 6:14 pm

Hi Guys!

In the process of restoring my 1957 Sportster and I have a few part questions and requests:

1) Part # 67821-52 - Spacer Headlamp Mount. - anyone know the dimensions of these spacers?
2) Part # 63590-53A - Pipe, chain oiler - anyone know where to find one of these or have one for sale?
3) Carb - Linkert DC-1 - looking for the 90 degree fuel inlet pipe. Anyone know the part number and where I can find one?
4) Choke control - Looking for the choke lever and bracket parts for a 1957 with Linkert DC1 (27242-57, 27236-57, 27247-57, etc) Anyone have one for sale?
5) Exhaust support tube 65316-57 - Anyone have a 1957 version? I have a 1958 remake but it is not the same.
6) Part # 56628-57 Bracket, timer control coil. - Anyone have the dimensions of this part and/or have one for sale?


Thanks for your help. The bike is nearing completion and I can't wait to send some pictures in!

Gary,

Few sources I've found may not be cheap, but do have some older K Model and Sporty parts. MACHIV in WI, SixHarleys also WI, BillsOldBikeBarn in PA, MASCLASSICS in CA, Retrocycle in NJ I think.

I'll use eBay as a search engine to find old HD parts, then see what those sellers have that may not be easily listed/found.

I don't think I've got anything your looking for, at least not where I can readily see or find it. Lots of parts in boxes waiting for me to open up, once I get my new shop set up.

Good luck.
