W & W Cycles – Cannonball and more
Electric start kit for ’ 36 – ’ 57 Big Twins
Bates ‘ Kill Bill ’ battery switches
flat surface Bendix style oval air cleaners - it mounts with the two cover screws .
Linkert venturis
The almost invisible Cannonball electric start kit for rigid frame Big Twins converts classic kickstart-only models to electric start . The primary housing , oil tank and rear fender require just modest modifications to be retained ; the transmission with its stock kickstarter stays untouched . The kit includes everything needed for the conversion except for the battery , wires and starter button / switch . If the bike is still equipped with the early stock 6V charging system , this will have to be converted to 12V , which means a suitable generator , coil and lamps need to be fitted . Detailed , stepby-step instructions are included ; the kit is intended for the use with primary chain drive . W & W recommends the use of Antigravity 12-cell or 16-cell batteries – “ these have enough power and perfectly fit the provided tray and clamp . The kit fits Knucklehead and Panhead Big Twins 1936 - 1957 .
Hydraulic Springer brake
Terminal and thumb screw assembly which can be mounted on any suitable place on the motorcycle . It connects the battery ’ s ground ( negative ) terminal and cable with the frame . After installation you have two options : use the ‘ Kill Bill ’ switch like an ignition switch - half a turn out and the current is interrupted ; or use it as protection from manipulation and theft by removing the thumb screw to disconnect the battery from the electrical system .
Bates MAG-12 Narrow Glide wheels
Aluminum reproductions of the original Linkert venturis ( as used in M-series carburetors ) by Colony - also available in oversizes for worn carburetor bodies . A good venturi fit is essential for proper performance of Linkert carbs .
‘ Good Guys 2 ’ air cleaner backing plate and cover kits
