Unidentified parts (Part 1)

Hi,

I bought this springer fender recently, when it arrived I noticed two embossed holes on each side valance. Has anyone seen anything like this before?

Those holes are actually fairly common. They were created by the hollow sleeves around the bolts holding a front bumper on the fender, not by any Harley-Davidson production method. Sometimes the holes are deeply embossed like yours, sometimes virtually flat but always from an aftermarket accessory. Either find a bumper to go on it or flatten and fill the holes! Robbie

Robbie,

I was looking through the books and it did look like those holes would line up pretty well with an accessory bumper. But they looked to me like they were too perfect, like they were formed when the fender was made. Guess I learn something new every day. Thanks!

Bought this piece on eBay a while back, supposed to be a clutch arm for an early flattie, definitely wasn't what I thought it was. Can anyone identify this thing, I'm clueless

Clutch arm for a '65 to '67 FL that allows a mousetrap or foot rocker with electric start. I wrote that guy on ebay and told him his description was wrong but he ignored it. I guess he convinced someone! Early flatheads use same arm as knuckles.

Robbie,

I thought his description was wrong too, from the picture I thought it was the clutch arm I needed for my '56 Pan. All the later Big Twin clutch arms I have ever seen are flattened out at the upper bend, unlike this one, and the arm is also straight, doesn't bend like this one does. Also, the "mousetrap eliminator" arms I have seen are short like this one, but again have the flattened bend and are straight. That's why I thought this was off something older...
