    HiFlo - HF171B Cut Open, 2014 Road King,

    I've used the HiFlo cartridge type in a F650 thumper. Seems a bit small but the filter is stout. One thing I like about these types of filter types is the before/after visual inspection with no cutting required. Nice report.

    Any REUBEN SANDWICH fans?

    Went to his new café here in Venice FL for lunch last week. Real food! Oven roasted corned beef, homemade [censored], dressing etc. Sweet potato fries too. Yeah, obligatory shirt dribble. The old go to Ruben joint is now so obsolete.

    Jailed for taking electricity worth 5 cents !

    Some here have clearly settled on "the man is keeping me down" side of the fence and you are entitled to your opinion. But to me the guy was trespassing despite a prior warning, is using public utility without permission, (ya, it's stealing) and refused to acknowledge law enforcement upon their...

    Triumph 1yr/10,000 mile OCI on new Explorer

    What a beast of an engine on this bike! I'm sure they have scientific data to support the extended OCI, but I'd half it at best if it's a shared sump bike and run a UOA. I've found shift quality degrades too much after 2500 miles on pretty much any common sump bike I've owned and that's using...

    Jailed for taking electricity worth 5 cents !

    Kidding aside, the guy's a poacher. He lives close enough to the school to be within range but opts to plug in there because he doesn't see the power he's using on his own bill. It's his own conscious choice and it's stealing. He's a financial advisor right?

    HD introduces 2 new bikes

    Motorcycles are largely an emotional choice since most riders are using them for recreation as opposed to daily transportation. I've owned four HD's and enjoyed each one for it's intended purpose. If you choose to spend your time riding around in a Corolla feeling unhappy about what others ride...

    Rotella T6, 5782 oci, 103959mi, Subaru 2.5L NA

    Judging by the unspeakable mistreatment one friend gave his Subaru Brat, your cold heart may stop beating first. Wait for a foot of snow then sell it for top dollar. The WRX's wont exactly be jumping off the lot then. Waiting for Subaru's to die is like waiting for taxes to go down.

    KREEN

    In a sea of snake oil and false promises, Kano Labs products deliver. Like Aero Kroil, Kreen is a fantastic product. My daughters 3.5L Altima had a faint lifter noise at 135K. Not anymore. It was gone within minutes by just idling in the driveway. I used the recommended dose in the fuel too...

    Auto-RX in an XR400

    I'd just use any HDEO on a 500-1000 mile OCI. Buy some filters in bulk. My vintage Suzuki's oil stayed fairly clean after a handful of changes. You were given very good advice on the valves... I hope you were listening!!
