Good To Know

Q: Does this CV40 carburetor come pre-jetted for my Sportster? A: The carburetor ships with standard jetting suitable for stock 883cc and 1200cc engines; re-jetting may be needed if you have aftermarket intake or exhaust modifications.

Q: Will this fit 2017 and later fuel-injected Sportster models? A: No, the CV40 carburetor is designed for 1988–2016 carbureted Sportsters; it will not work with electronic fuel injection systems found on 2017+ models.
