That's a good ride. I tried to go up to the mountains yesterday and got pretty close before it started to rain. I turned around and stayed away from the storms but had a good ride anyway.

[TheBoss]

Citizenship??? As in getting singled out?

[glenalt]

Sounds like you had a fun day dog. I wouldn't mind em asking for some proof of citizenship. Prolly won't be able to continue it though when the government gets through with em. Sad they can't even enforce the law of the land.

I run Mobil 1 20W-50 synthetic in the motor & the primary.......Then Mobil 1 75W-140 synthetic gear oil in the transmission.....then I run a Purepower lifetime oil filter, (flows 22 gpm versus HD OEM filters that flow 7-9 gpm).....I also run two oil coolers running one after the other....and a JAGG unthermostated oil cooler/filter adapter versus Harley's unit that open at 185 degrees F.....put this all together and it stays a lot cooler than normal......
