    Fram Extra guard oil filter for a Harley

    while not the same I used Fram Orange cans & Autolite White cans (commercial account filters that saved me $$$) on an '06 Honda Shadow 750...no issues during the time that I owned it from 2015-2017 doing 2-3 oil changes/yr (less miles than recommended oci due to shearing via clutch)

    goin' old school...duty sized steel .38 spl wheelie!

    after a hard decision to sell off multiple poppers (ar-15 & all my 9mm's; associated ammo, mags, accessories) to put $$$ toward an upcoming eye surgery, I kept a snub .38 spl wheelie, micro .380, and semiauto 22lr rifle; came across a really affordable duty sized 38 spl wheelie...clean used '22...

    hey...my Honda Navi is going into hibernation & shortly after waking her up next spring the warranty will be used up; ssooo...that opens up possibilities to move away from the factory spec of 10w-30 engine oil and using gear oil in the rear differential; would you continue with 10w-30 engine oil...
