NOS vs POS Motorcycle Part

[Buzz_Kanter]

OK folks, I certainly hope everyone here knows the difference between an NOS part and a POS part for a classic motorcycle.

NOS is New Old Stock (and that's usually very good) while POS is Piece Of S#it, which is usually very bad.

Lots of POS parts can be found on eBay.

So can NOS and good used.

Pretty simple- NOS is for an Indian, and POS is for a Harley

That's true, and in all fairness, I should've said so. I have spent many thousands of dollars on eBay in the past year, and have made some outstanding purchases! And a few not so good.....................

From my friend who owned Harleys in the 1930's (Clunks) "If you want grief, buy a Chief; if you want more, get a four."

Yep, gotta be a million examples of "playfull banter"

"Harley Davidson, made of tin,
Ride 'em out, and push 'em in"

If ya don't like riding and ya love grief, put yer buns on an Indian Chief. If ya do like ridin' and havin' fun, buy a Harley 61.

[MeanGene]

If I had a Harley, I'd leave it for a thief,
Take the insurance money, and buy an Indian Chief
