I discovered this site about 2 wks ago. Big mistake. I am getting all of this needless crap in my email that I can't believe. Sorry, but what I see is sad. Some guy wants to know what kind of oil to use. Give me a break!! Others want to know what air pressure to use. Another wants to know if he can put slipons on his 07 and wants to know if he can just have it remaped on the puter or knock the baffels out. I am sure most don't know that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. They need to give people an intellingence test before they sell them a Harley. But then again, sales would probably fall. Harley has been diluted. Used to be the hard core biker, now just the weekender. Ever hear of the OWNERS MANUAL? Gosh, that could provide some info. Most need to ride a rice burner. Something they can relate to. I guess most of you can go to the local "harley" shop and buy some harley clothes. That should make you a real "biker". LOL. Better go to Starbucks and meet your buddys. LOL

Well the door swings two way... Don't think anyone twisted you arm to be here...

Yea there seems to be some dumb questions and the same question\s posted daily... But there is some good info here also if you read...

I've been riding most of my life on just about every kind of 2 wheel street bike since 1966 - Owned a MC Shop in the late 70's & 80's & wore my COLORS with PRIDE...

Since I have been a member here I have never yet got as you say any "NEEDLESS CRAP" in my E-Mail????

Sounds like someone needs a hug. [sm=boohoo.gif]lol This site is all about helping each other out with information and techniques that they have tried and would recomend to others. If it is not your thing, lose the web address. I have been riding a mere 21 years, so I don't have all the answers. Ilike this site to find those answers.

If perhaps you had done some research of your own, oron this site before you bought thatRoad Glidethat you are unhappy with, you would have kept that Heritage you and the ol' lady were so proud of. I rented several bikes before my purchase, so I knew what I was getting. AND YES, I did rent a RG. Had no trouble finding one, and knew after riding it, I knew the RG was not the bike for me. But that is just my opinion. Others here love theirs, so, what makes you so special?

I think you need to take your own advice. You asked the exact same question about exhaust three times. Worse than that, you created a new post each time! Quit wasting our time, forget this website's address and move on!! If you don't have Alzheimer's disease, you need an intelligence test yourself.

Ron

Some folks get excited about buying a new Harley. Or buying a used Harley for that matter. I saw a bumper sticker the other day that said "Let me tell you about my grandchildren." Hey, Gramma is excited about what her grandchildren do and want to tell EVERYBODY about them. I think some people just want everyone to know they ride a Harley. Probably even own a Harley T-Shirt!!!!

There is an index that you select what post you want to read. Use it. Don't want to read. Don't click on it. Don't want email to notify you that a thread you posted in got replied to? Uncheck the box that says notify me of a reply. See how user friendly we are?

You did read the rules and the instructions, didn't you. This place is like Burger King - you can have it your way, but you don't own the restaurant. Order what you want from the menu, addd what you want, don't order what you don't want. Enjoy your meal or pitch it in the trash if you want. Don't make a problem for others who are here. Let others enjoy their experience.

Oh yeah, Mama should have taught you to keep your mouth shut while chewing at the table. Nobody want to see what you are doing to your food before you digest it. And certainly no one wants to see it after it has been digested.

If you feel joining here is a big mistake, don't come back. You make the choice with you mouse, and now you let us know about it with your mouth.

Read the rules about bashing members.

Tell us about your Harley. Post a pic of your ride. Heck, post a GALLERY of your ride for us to enjoy. Be proud of what you ride. Be a productive member of HD Forums instead of a PIA.

Thanks for asking.

Richard
