 +==== Kmotor Super E (copy?) ====
 +This is some of the wording of the advertisement on Ebay. ((https://​www.ebay.com/​itm/​153007477314?​ul_noapp=true)) \\
 +<​blockquote>​This carb is billed as "New 11-0420 Carburetor Super E Shorty Carburetor Big Twin or Sportster Carb". \\
 +US $64.97/ea. "1 year warranty. This is a brand new, high quality direct fit __OE style replacement part__"​. \\
 +The Super E are butterfly type carbs with fully adjustable idle mixture screws and changeable intermediate and main jets. \\
 +The idle mixture screw is positioned and angled for easy accessibility. Even with 5 gallon gas tanks, adjustments are not a problem. \\
 +The Super E has a 1-7/8in. (47.6mm) throat at the butterfly and is identified by an E cast into the throttle linkage side of the carb body. \\
 +All Super series carburetors use a special enrichment device instead of a choke for starting. This leaves the bore of the carburetor unobstructed for greater air flow. \\
 +The Super E enrichment device is activated by a variable position lever attached to the air cleaner backplate. \\
 +By simply adjusting the lever, starting and warm-ups are made easy and foolproof. </​blockquote>​ \\
 +
 +It's actually made by "​Kmotor"​ out of China if you read the fine print on the bottom of the add. \\
 +But the wording in the add makes it sound like the S&S Super E. There is no data suggesting that this isn't a good carburetor. \\
 +It may actually be a cheaper alternative. \\
 +However, it is something to take into account if your intention is indeed to buy an S&S model. \\
 +Here is the carburetor:
