Default Whats it wourth?

Hi to all I just got back today from a 1800 mile run mostly on interstate after the first day I decided time to upgrade to a six speed. So I will need to sell my stock setup from a 1983 FXSB which has a belt primary and secondary drive. My transmission has the kicker and&nbsp\\;was rebuilt 2500 miles ago also new clutch, comes with the starter 1 new primary belt 1 new clutch cable besides the ones in use now. Complete set up I know for sure it will fit all 1983 and older harleys that came with belt primarys and belt secondarys. maybe 84 also. You pros know alot more about that then me, So guys and gals what should I ask for it? Thanks Ole

v10ole,

A buddy of mine has an '84 LR final belt drive, the only thing I can tell you is he couldn't find one when his grenaded, I think Smuth (spelling) makes a case for it, but only at certin times of the year, so&nbsp\\;he had to buy a 5 speed, regular 4 speed harley trannys don't work with a final belt drive that is for certain, anyway have no idea how much it's worth, except he paid $2400 for the 5 speed, he would have bought&nbsp\\;yours for $800 at least, but remember your dealing with a limited amount of rides that uses that model tranny.
&nbsp\\;
Good luck
