I placed no value on the rods new and used when I made my offer. There's a 705 and 706 set and 1200 sportster rods both chinese and S&S, I had no plans to use any of them.

The cases may be from Motortechnic? If so they may have casting numbers and DCs inside but the few examples I’ve seen didn’t get the style of characters right. Some Motortechnic cases I’ve seen have the company name and other ID under the front mount.

The cases are from them according to the seller and there are casting dates inside but I didn't open them up to see what they randomly chose. I plan to use it in a bobber or chopper at some point.
