This morning's Chicago Tribune business section article re bikes confirmed just about everything posted above. The columnist used HD in most of his examples; making no specific comments re Honda and other Asian rides The bottom line seems to be that the younger prospects just aren't there. To...

The Chicago Tribune reported that HD is opening a new store across from Wrigley Field. That will position them right in front of a youthful crowd that can afford to buy very expensive game tickets; and hopefully very expensive motorcycles. We shall see.

I think B_Rubenstein is right. MC sales are off all over the US. Example, three Honda stores have closed between Milwaukee and Chicago and I believe one more is about to go. As to the NC700 and the CTX700 (and this just an opinion) I don't like the the legs back or legs forward positioning. I...

I'm thinking about new bikes that have been sitting on showroom floors since as far back as 2014. I see them in the dealerships and CycleTrader ads. I guess many if not all have fuel in them that has been there for years. If I am right, what chance is there that the old fuel has started to mess...

JB, I see you are from Two Rivers, home of Kahlenberg horns. They have no peer. I've bought a couple of horns from Steve K while at the Fort Lauderdale boat shows. I wish they made a product for motorcycles. Have fun.

Interesting! It reminds me of my '48 Chevy. We called them snake eyes.

Thank you LBS Sorry to be so dense! While here; my dream bike is something that looks like the last iteration Honda Magna with a Mustang saddle and a first class light bar. This powered by the 2016 DCT ABS tech. Wait! Wait! - maybe something that looks like the 1978 CB 750s. I like sitting...

AT means??

What about this? While the bike is upright satisfy yourself the oil is right on the mark. Park the bike as you usually do and come back next day. Check the oil level while still parked. If there is a measurable difference mark the new spot on the stick with the stroke of a file. Now you can...

I just answered my own question. I Googled "Orange County Radiator Repair". They're all over the place.

+1 easy install $500! insane. Are there any radiator repair shops left?
