This Prestolite type starter housing is designed for Harley-Davidson Big Twin models using the original Prestolite electric starter.
The housing is a quality casting with all machining completed to specification, providing correct alignment and fit during starter service or repair. Proper machining is critical for starter engagement and long-term reliability.
Designed for Big Twin models from 1965 through 1978, this starter housing is intended as a replacement for damaged or worn original housings. Housing only; starter housing bearing must be ordered separately.
This part replaces Harley-Davidson OEM 31465-65. At Boomers Bike Shop, we stock starting system components that fit correctly and are trusted for real-world Big Twin service work.
Fits Harley-Davidson Models:
Big Twin: 1965–1978
⚠️ For Prestolite-style starter applications only. Housing bearing sold separately.
