Speaking of oil it might be time to change the oil on the bike, it's got 1500 miles on it...
Your motor, your money. Go be poor somewhere else.

At that price point maybe not.

Not poor, not stupid either. Foolish to pay double for same specd product just because it has HD on it...
But hey, somebody has to keep the stealers in buisness.

Your right, all man made....but I still would not use any brake fluid that did not state safe for ABS on the bottle.....They may all be safe too use but if push comes to shove, I want it stated for liability issues if needed down the road.

Yes. It was on sale. The regular price is an astronomical $18.00. So it has to be good stuff.

Maybe its time to toss the DOT 5.1 turd in the punch bowl? For use as an upgrade to DOT 4...
