1/12 motorcycle air cleaner.

Anybody cast an S&S air cleaner for Harley Davidson?

Norm at Replicas and Miniatures of Maryland has a 1/12th scale motorcycle details carbs air cleaners & fuel shut-off valve set listed as part #RM-127, and one of the air cleaners kind of looks like that one.  Here is a link to Craig Stansfield's Fotki album showing the parts:

How do you go about ordering from these guys? Google not that helpful.

Email Norm and see if he can still cast them. They're not in his last catalog. Some stuff not listed is still available...

[Mike C.]

Yeah. He got back to me and said they don't cast them anymore. Guess I'll have to go with the stock one. No way I'm going to attempt to scratch build that one.

I was following this thread hoping that Norm still cast those filters.  That's a bummer, but I imagine they were never really a big seller (not many modelers build model motorcycles).

Back about 15 years ago there was a 1:12 kit of Harley Custom Springer made by Imai/Imex.  It includes that air filter.  I built that kit back then. Here is what it looks like.

It's a long shot, but if you find that kit you will have that cleaner, although it will likely be pricey.

Wow! That looks nice Peter. My cousin had the S&S carb on his Low Rider, and I thought it always looked cool. Thanks for the pic.
