I’m curious as to the reason for the ban as well. Seems to be a stand up guy with a good product.

I'd have to agree he wasn't vending... He didn't start the thread, someone else did. Therefore he was answering questions on the product.... Which he would be the expert on.

Hey, there are vendors here that pay a fee to be here. They sell a product that fixes this problem. HDForums has a responsibility to those vendors that support them (pay a fee). I figure, one of these vendors complained so HDF had to step in. Make sense? No? I could be wrong, but if you were said vendor, would you appreciate being undercut by some nonpaying seller here? They probably approach him with an opportunity to become a vendor and he declined. Then he was out. I don't think he needs help selling his product as he claims to have sold over 400 on Facebook. If this matter continues the be a debate, this thread will be locked by Admin. I've seen it happen in the past. It's time to move on, you know where to find the other guy. Enough said.

Is it Baker you are referring to? Or is there another vendor with a solution?

My post is an assumption and my opinion. Nothing more. If I hadn't purchased the Light Force from AIM prior to Mark @Baker's solution, I would have considered his option. It's a beautiful piece. I never like the cheap chrome tin cover Harley put over the Transmission. I liked the one that was on my 2006 CVO Ultra, Chrome with the bleeder exposed. Loved that bike but I wanted anti-lock brakes so I moved forward multiple times since that bike.

This is what over flowed one morning.

Here is the morning ritual.
That is your tranny's entire capacity. You were running the tranny dry and that is a real problem.

Just so you know I didn't say a thing. He has a product that works and he's making money doing it more power to him. I did see a thread in the General section where he was basically advertising and other members were calling him out for it. That may have been what sunk the ship.
