    The new Indians revealed last night

    How did this thread turn into a Harley bash? It was started on the new Indian and then went down the toilet. I own a Harley that I got new in 2006 and I have to say that it has been a very reliable and solid bike, just as good as the many metrics I have owned. I ride with my friends that have...

    3,000 mile paranoia. Who has it here?

    The owners manual for my 1970 Ford F100 says change the oil every 6 mo or 6000 miles! No mention of the 3k OCI way back then.

    2008 Honda Ridgeline with crazy driver!

    No the crazy driver is not me,its my wife! That beeing said, I currently have PU 5w20 in it, but because of her rather spirited driving style, should I move it up to a 5w30 for the summer? I just went for a ride with her this morning and what a ride it was! I need a drink now! Thanks
