This is a rare one, found on the Minarelli P4 P6, Fantic Broncco, Harley Davidson Shortster, Harley M50, Harley M65, Gilera 102, and Indian 100 (I am sure I missed a couple)

The carb is rare, but the original metal air filter is even rarer. I have seen the filter go for $50 by itself.

It comes complete with the metal air filter, the Minarelli intake (originally on a P450 50cc 4 speed) and the throttle cable.

Yeah the people with Aermacchi Harleys and Italian made Indians that do not know these cross reference to other makes, and pay stupid big bucks for these. I have seen these carbs sell for $160 and just the air filter sell for $50 on fleecebay.

I had one for awhile that I couldn’t give away. Finally put it on eBay and after a couple months made a few bucks. Your best bet is eBay in this case.

No worries on hijacking, there are plenty of incomplete ones out there and your price is actually a little low. A fully functional one ready to install is the unicorn. Like I said, the Harley Aermacchi collectors and the Indian Italian made collectors, and even the rare minibike guys all go by part number and don't get that these cross over more makes than they think. They pay ridiculous prices for these hard to find carbs thinking they are unique to their model. That drives the price way up for no good reason.

What's even funnier is that since many lose the air cleaner, this air cleaner has sold for over $50 just by itself, because the restorers want the original real deal and pay stupid for them. Dellorto switched to the large black plastic ones for these carbs and stopped with the metal ones around 1970, making these impossible to find.

Bump for a good seller and dude.

I have a Minarelli M4 Radial on the Cimatti 86, but I already sourced the rectangular wide mouth intake for that motor, otherwise I would surely bite.

GLWS Dave, hope to see you in Acadia this year.

Pat,

I think you could get $30 plus shipping on fleecebay.

Dillon, thanks for the kind words. I hope to see you both in Acadia and at LSLB!
