    I recently placed this carburetor on eBay but if anyone here wants it I'll ship it for free.
    Mikuni Screamin Eagle 42 Carburetor Kit for Harley (item 230320996646)

    The carb is practically new and was set up for a Twin Cam 88. It comes with the airbox adapter and a set of Barnett cables specifically for installing on a Big Twin. The cables are a couple inches longer than stock (don't recall the length) since they were on my Heritage with beach bars.

    The one I placed on ebay already has bids, but I have a couple more without cables (that use your stock cables). [UPDATE - Item on ebay has already sold]
    I'm selling them because I have several sitting around that I held onto. These others I've pulled off of various bikes in the past year or so when others wanted to use one of my rebuilt CV carbs instead. Throttle response is fantastic with these however I feel that the CV gets better gas mileage and handles better at higher altitudes. I'd sell the others for 165 each. I also have another one that uses the reverse cables (like the one posted) but I don't have anymore of those early-style cables so you would need to buy those. I'll sell that carb for 130.

    The other reason behind my selling off my stock of carburetors is I've grown tired of building and setting up carbs for people and want to concentrate more on the parts I've been manufacturing. Plus it gives me more time to ride :D

    Update - The eBay carb has sold but I have some others if anyone is interested.

    #1 - Mikuni HSR42 carburetor kit
    includes choke cable and adapter to mount your stock airbox. Set up for a Twin Cam 88 but you can easily rejet for any model. This carb is ready to mount and go!
    $165​
    #2 - Mikuni HSR42 carburetor (only)
    This is the early style cable mount and requires separate purchase of Barnett cables (will not work with stock cables). Also needs the airbox adapter which runs $18 at J&P. $120​
    Shipping w/insurance runs around $12 anywhere in the US.
