New Evo owner
This is my third HD but my first Evo. Just love the idea of a mechanical NON computerized machine. It has a lot of character. I have some friends who have always sworn by the FXR so I decided to give one a try. Lot of bike for the money. I have to say it's handling is like a razor in the corners compared to my other bikes. Hope not to have to ask to many questions! haha

Whoops, I left on an "n". Electronic ignition? Clearly you haven't had that fancy little check engine light come on. This bike just feels more primitive. I like being able to work on it without getting a diagnostic report. Just saying.... It does puke a little oil occasionally out of tube that I can only assume is a crank case vent or something?

I have the service manual already. I don't think I said "thingie" but point taken.
You can see the tube I speak of hanging out from under the bike in my sig pic. I just wondered if it was normal. Thanks for the advice.
