Very true. Back in 1971, not long after I moved to Utah, I saw this in the Auto ads in the newspaper:

"Wife says motorcycle goes or she does. Either one, $500."

That's right. My own true gf is named Katrina and my bike never leaks oil.

Remember the old saying? "How do get a free Harley? Follow one down the road and pick up the pieces."

Btw, since we're all here, I'm posting in this thread in the hope someone will be able to help me with a serious dilemma.

For some time now, my girlfriend, Carla, and I, really haven't been getting along very well at all. She doesn't seem interested in me any more, and has become very short tempered with me. At times, it feels like she is finding excuses to argue and fall out with me. Whats more, she has been going out rather a lot, and is evasive when I ask where to, or who with. :-? Her usual answer, is that she has been with friends that I don't know. She has also become very secretive with her computer, and phone, with texts arriving at all times of day and night. In the last couple of weeks, she has found an excuse to go out of the house just about every evening.....needless to say, i have become very suspicious, and as a result I decided to check up on her.

Unfortunately, I can't see the road from our house, so I haven't been able to see how she was getting home after an evening out. I wondered if she was using a taxi, or possibly being dropped off by a so-called friend. :shifty: On Tuesday, I decided to hide in the garden, in order to get a glimpse of her ride home. I hid behind my bike waiting for her to return, and while I lay in wait pondering my future, I noticed some oil leaking from the cam cover just behind plug number three. So what I need to know....is this a simple fix I can make at home, or will I need to take the bike back to the dealer?

Do whatever it takes to fix the oil leak. You will get more miles from the bike. :03:

Surely we'd have known some other way than tagging along in HunterICX's thread. :hmmm:
