I must admit, I have provided garage space for (and ridden) a few Harleys.
What did they have in common? The piles of metal filings that come out of the
engine (and tranny) during oil changes. The number of bolts that have to be
replaced having been driven loose by the constant shaking. The oil leaks that
even the dealers & factory service say are "normal". On yeah, and when you
open the throttle, it doesn't go much faster, it just makes even more noise
and shakes harder. However, I must admit that two of them did meet the minimum
50 hp rule, and might beat my 10 year old bone stock Honda Civic in a drag
race. ;^O
So I guess I'm not a Harley fan, but I still wave to Harleys when I ride. They
sometimes wave back. . .
