I have a friend who has a FX Last year they made them . Been setting ever sense the front brake locked up. Over 30 years I guess He decided while it was up to mess with engine and did not get something right. How the store goes anyway.

Has the Bowling outfit logo on the tank. He told me countless ones when they came out with the FXE lost their starters to the purest.

Says it’s off a 1340 not sure of the year though. Can’t tell if the inner primary is buggered up where starter attaches. $300 or best offer. Will any of this work and i assume it’s not a stock starter but China.

That's off an EVO. For sure inner primary and starter motor will not work. Can't say on the outer primary.

Also, pull your outer primary off and see if it has the caged needle bearing pressed in for the starter jackshaft.

Looks like a member has a 76’fxe and has what i need for a complete starter set up. Did 76’ vary at all in starter parts for the fxe?

No sir they did not. Same starter parts for FXE models as for FLH models

I have most of the parts you need. I do not have the pivot bolt for the lever. I do have the spring that goes inside the Solenoid for the lingage but it was behind the starter to keep it upright so that you could see the AMF. Sticker. I am not in a big hurry to sell the stuff as it it good stuff to keep around, but if the other deal doesn't work out, hit me up with an offer and I'll probably help you out.
