Re: Brake fluid
Too much to read in that post. But, it can't hurt. I guess there's no such thing as too much maintenance. I do change the air in my tires monthly, as it gets stale and stinky in there I agree, way too much reading and it's OLD! I managed to get through a paragraph or two :anvil: I probably go/went ...

If your ever in my area be sure to look me up ... I've got some firepower in the safe I think you would enjoy! I've got a couple that you won't enjoy (hurts like hell to fire) but still fun to shoot just for laughs!

Re: Brake fluid
Moral: Flush your brake fluid every year or so. How many of you subscribe to this theory? I know there are a lot of factors involved but wanted to see who does this as a matter of regular maintenance. Hi Bill - I tend to be a little over the top with my maint schedules BUT to answer your question ....

Re: Harley building some smaller models
They WILL sell them ... not a bike for me but a lot of people will buy just because "Harley Davidson" on tank. I've talked with so many guys/girls and have heard the comment "one day I'll buy a Harley" or "I'm saving for a Harley" even though they have a very nice bike ...

Re: The British are coming!
Shooting's frowned upon here nowadays but I used to be an dedicated combat pistol shooter - 1911a1 compensated, Delta Colt 40magnum compensated, mauser bolo in 9mm for laughs and lovely muzzle flashes. I reloaded my own in all calibers and had a packed gun safe. A Columbine type incident in England...

Re: adjusting richness of fuel air mixture
Gordon - Here is something I found when looking around: The best way to accurately set idle mixture is to use an emission-test machine to read hydrocarbon (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) levels. As you move the idle-mixture screws, youll see some very dramatic changes in HC and CO readings. The ideal...

It's that time of the year again I start to wish I was somewhere warm where winter means dig out the long sleeve shirts ... not the shovels, plows and salters ... We got maybe two inches of snow overnight but the salt truck has been down my road 2 times in the last 1.25 hours! :wft: I plan to call t...

Re: Riding Temperature
Temps are not what keeps me off the bike, the salt they throw on the roads is what does it for me. The lowest air temps I've ridden would be between 5-10 degrees, the hottest 120+ in south west deserts. The toughest weather conditions on one trip would have been my trip to Alaska, I had temps as low...
