This may seem simple and unnecessary for a lot of pople ... but I figured there would be one located on the forum and I didnt see one....

I was looking for a side shot of a bike just pointing out engine parts and slang terms... so absolute new comers can know when someone is talking about the AC, engine cover, shocks, struts, calipers....

Obviously most of these are common sense...

What are your thoughts? Is this too basic for everyone here?

I think it would be better if they just got a manual. Seems to "Harley for Dummy's" to me....

If you think its valuable do one up an post it.

I agree, get a manual, if you use the technical term, someone will enlighten you to the slang term. But all who are in the know will understand without equivocation what you are talking about. Whatever, we'll get the gist of it. you know the language, the gizmo, the thingy, etc.
