Linkert M5, Rare One Of A Kind 1936 2 Bolt ,new Nickel / Rebuilt W/warranty on 2040-parts.com
Brattleboro, Vermont, US
M5
1936-1939 E, EL
This will fit
1936-1939, but this version has me totally
stumped. This body has to be one of the earliest
known M5 carbs and would have to have been made in
1935. This is a 2 bolt air cleaner body -" 2-338",
hand stamped "3"( NOT 4 ), and only
has the 2 drill plugs, no soldered in plugs. It
also has the extremely thick "boss" on the bowl
stem as seen on the M2,M21, & M31 2 bolt
carbs, but this one is definitely an honest
M5 2 bolt body, as that was the only 2
bolt body with a machined & pinned surface for an OHV
bowl. All other Linkert & Beck bodies with 2
bolt flanges , except M5 & late M31 castings,
did not even have the casting for the OHV bowl and
were just round in that area. , and only the
M5 had a machined & pinned surface for an OHV bowl. Would have been for one of the very,very first Knuckleheads. A very,
very rare & unusual carb, possibly one
of a kind. May even be an experimental M5 carb.
Definitely the earliest OHV carb body I have
owned since 1965.
This has a 7-64 plated brass bowl, plated brass bowl
nut, plated brass choke disc, early high &
low speed needles, OEM plated throttle lever, and even an original brass venturi ! Excellent condition, only major touch up to the carb was machining a light ding out of the top of the bowl lip ( gone, totally ). All else is a normal rebuild - rubber ducky, new float lever, plated pivot pins, plated steel tip needle & seat, plated plugs, etc. #459
ALL of our rebuilt Linkert & Schebler DLX carburetors carry a 90 day warranty.
And
ALWAYS -especially with these early rides, go by your manual,
shut off your gas when you are not running your bike.
