Oil leak

I know you all think Harleys all leak oil but that just the usual bullshit. I have however found an oil leak and thought it was just my primary cover gasket but it turn out it is the inner primary gasket which is a pain in the arse and means no rally this coming weekend. Not a difficult job as such but a long one as it means stripping the entire primary out. I guess it gives me a chance to inspect everything.

Do you think maybe hauling that trailer might have put the final nail in the koffen for the old girl...?

Nothing good ever came of attaching a trailer to a motorcycle!

So is the Harley a pre unit, even Triumph went to unit construction in 1963, sadly they didn't think to split the cases horizontally so they kept leaving their mark, just like your Harley.

However it appears that the new Indian has a unit construction engine/gearbox, maybe you should get one, there's even a trailer hitch available.

Are you kidding me ....Buck wouldn't be able to ride one of those...just too much power for him...and the trailler wheels would disintegrate from the g force...of a 130 lbs of torque....

Let’s see what your Indian is like after 55,000 miles, not that you will have it that long, in three months time you will be riding a Honda Shadow and getting bummed by midgets.

In a very long I haven't felt anything like this...well maybe my first sexual experience at the age of 16 with Evana Humpalot..I think I'm in love with this motorcycle...she might be my last one...in 7 years I'll be 65 years old.

I’m not sure if you should see an optician or a psychiatrist.

They may want to talk to you about them and it may put you in prison depending on how you answer the questions.
