    LoJack & extended warrenty on a Harley Davidson Nighter XL worth it?

    Choppy is absolutely right,... get the Lojack direct from Lojack. On the warranty:The bike is/was priced with two years built in. I was able to swing the throw-in on the extra 5 years,(did not finance it) so I wouldn't know about the "value" of it, but if I would have paid, its already paid for...

    Do Harley Davidson Owners "READ" their Owners Manual for their bike?

    Don't be blinded by science,... all you need to know is that it works. Actually I did read my owner's manual over supper the day I got it and didn't ride another mile until I finished it and it does give the option of using synthetic.... but you wouldn't know that. My HD dealer likes me just...

    Would a Harley Davidson Iron 883 be a good first motorcycle ?

    Oh man,.... you are a glutton for punishment aren't you? This is the one place that all the Harley haters will come out with their mouths foaming to get the chance to indoctrinate a new rider. That being said: If you are an average sized guy the 883 iron or otherwise is a fine choice for a first...

    Should I buy a Victory or a Harley Davidson?

    I tell you up front I am not impartial,.. It sounds like you already have your mind made up, but hey, not so fast. The Victory puts itself out there as "The New American Motorcycle", but its not. The ownwership of Victory heavily lobbied JDPower for a meaningless distinction. Every single part...

    Where can I get a diagram of a 1995 Harley Davidson Heritage Softail charger...

    Surely in one of the many HD forums someone has posed this question and someone else has shared the file with them. If not, perhaps someone in this group has a service manual that they would be willing to scan, upload and email to you. I have a service manual for a 2006, but have no scanner...

    Not much,...the GV has a few more bells and whistles and has more luxury. The T&C is trimmed out in a more rural lifestyle amenities. It all depends on what your needs are... happy hunting

    Harley Davidson Motorcycles!?

    Well,.. I'm not at all sure what a "witch" motorcycle is. I can tell you "which" motorcycle is the king of all motorcycling, but I won't..(you already know,and said it), and you asked this loaded question knowing its a can of worms. I suspect you simply want to stir up the harley haters..... A...

    WHATS UP WITH THE ELITIST HARLEY-DAVIDSON ATTITUDE?

    No man,... The Harley snobs are definitely in the minority. If a guy thinks he's gotta ride a Harley to fit in, then its like some people have said: if its gotta be explained to you, you wouldn't understand. Its the same with the wave bike riders do when passing going opposite directions; I...

    How to loosen auto tensioner in 91 ford tempo?

    This little idler pulley/tensioner is not expensive and if that square hole is boogered up, (how'd you manage that?) then a pry bar against it will either crack or break the pulley or egg shape (ruin) it... Don't bother looking for it at autozone. Try NAPA, or a salvage yard. If the bracket is...

    what is the oil filter for a 2006 Harley Davidson Street Bob?

    63798-99,(chrome)......63731-99,(black) I recommend the K&N KN171-C. It exceeds factory specs and will not void ant warranty. Some guys swear by 'em,... I just use the K&N because it has a 17mm head to grab on the end, and the chrome seems a little clearer than a stock harley filter.

    What do bigger rearends do for a car?

    The term "Ford 9 inch" refers to the size of the worm gear inside. The Ford 9 inch is the desired rear end for hot rods because its very very tough and able to handle major amounts of power without spitting out parts on the ground. It is also highly adaptable with every gear ratio combination...

    What is a good starter bike for someone who is 5'9'' and weighs 235 pounds?

    If you like sportbikes the conventional wisdom has been the Kawasaki Nijna 250. By far the best choice in a beginners ride is the Honda Rebel 250, or the Yamaha V-Star 250. The cruisers have a lower seat height, a lower center of gravity, are easier to ride and control and are generally less...

    1987 Suzuki - Clean Plastic Gas/Fuel Tank?

    The gravel thing is a tried and true way to get the crud out of that tank... It doesn't happen quickly though. Get ready to shake your self silly. It may take several tries... and a small bucket of gravel. Make sure its very small stones, and maybe add some sandbox style clean sand. Rinse VERY...

    motorcylce help-honda rebel 250 with 300 miles?

    A rebel with only 300..... you're getting a bike that isn't even close to being broke in. Unless its been beat on real hard (you would notice) you will get great service out of it. Ride safe. Stay alive. Don't give motorcycling a bad name...
