INTRODUCTION
S&S® Super E Shorty carburetors are designed for big twin and Harley-Davidson® Sportster® models as well as other American v-twin engines. They
are butterfly type carburetors with an accelerator pump for improved throttle responses and a variable enrichment/fast idle device for improved
engine starting and warm ups.
The Super E has a 17⁄8" (47.6mm) bore and 19⁄16" (39.6mm) venturi. It is identified by an "E" cast into the throttle linkage side of the body below the
letters "S&S SUPER".

NOTE: S&S carburetors are jetted at the factory to meet noise and exhaust emissions when properly installed. It is illegal to run the bike without the noise
reducers installed. Operating the motorcycle without the noise reducers will also cause engine damage. The user shall determine the suitability of the
product for his or her use and shall assume all risk and liability in connection therewith.

Kit Contents:
Each complete carburetor kit includes:

One S&S Super E gas carburetor

One S&S teardrop air cleaner assembly with noise reducer

One manifold with noise restrictor

Mounting hardware

Fuel line, fuel line insulator, clamps and overflow line

VOES tubing and additional hardware (when applicable)

Installation instructions and TUV documentation

CHROME PLATING THE CARBURETOR
NOTE:
S&S does not recommend chrome plating the Super E carburetor. Preparation requires polishing with abrasive buffing compounds. These materials
invariably plug air and/or fuel passages and other orifices regardless of precautions taken.

The chrome plating process can alter critical operating tolerances in several areas. Additionally, chrome may obstruct fuel passages,
possibly altering the fuel mixture and causing engine damage. All manufacturer warranties become void if any part of the carburetor is
polished, chrome plated or otherwise altered.

THROTTLE REQUIREMENTS
NOTE:
S&S Super E and G carburetors require the use of a two cable, pull open - pull closed throttle assembly. All 1980 and earlier stock H-D® models
equipped with a single cable throttle mechanism must be converted to the two cable, pull open-pull closed type. S&S offers these throttle assemblies but
does not include them with any carburetor kit because of the multitude of chassis designs and fitment requirements.

WARNING -Single, braided wire cable throttle mechanisms cannot mechanically close the throttle. If throttle inadvertently sticks in open
position, loss of control of motorcycle and personal injury to operator or others may result.
