I was going to stay out of this, but have decided to dive in anyway.
Being an old
true blue Harley Dude,  a little leaking oil has only helped me to grow
fonder of
the Coupe.  After all, with Harleys oil leaking is a way of life.  Why do
Harley
dudes wear black T-shirts?  Black don't show the oil as bad.  How do you
know when
your Harley needs some more oil?  A puddle of oil doesn't leak out over
night.
