I had figured that, and I'm all for DIY and ingenuity. But I think it's hilarious that he actually expects people to fight over it. The current winning bidder will pay $22 for it with shipping! Probably thinks it's an actual Honda bike part. "It came like that." Makes me want to ask, "Is that for the wide battery or the older narrow one?"

Says 1964,so probably for early type.

A few years ago someone put an Indian fire extinguisher pump handle and claimed it was an Indian motorcycle tire pump. No way it could pump air into a tire but there was a bidding war for it. It went for a huge amount of money and the buyer was happy with it!

As the seller has over 13,000 items listed I rather doubt they really care if it's OEM or not. .?????. ........lm

The above seller was not involved in the sale of the fake tire pump.
