I promise that was a joke @Skid, I would NEVER!!!! assault an officer of the law. Well except the fights with my brothers before they pinned on a badge.🤪🤪🤪

Almost got the bike ready for Vogel, anybody recommend a brand of oil when I change it?

Best off using the slippery stuff that they get out of the ground now-a-days, just check that it's not too slippery or the clutch will have issues, maybe.

That's a big can of worms you just opened.

I use Rotella T 5/40 in the blue bottle. I buy it by the gallon at Walmart.

I used to use Mobil 4T motorcycle racing oil but it cost a lot more.

Just make sure whatever you choose is ok for wet clutches.

No, you don’t HAVE to change it, I just like riding better than pushing.

I guess that means I need to go out and buy oil. 

[Woody]

we are all packed up and ready to roll, been raining every day I loaded the bike yesterday and it turned out to be a beautiful day today I could have rode and tried out my latest project oh well I guess it will get broke in at Vogel. 

[Motorcycle Mike]

All that rain you've been getting , we've been getting a couple of hours later.

Some were pretty big storms. It looks like the weather is going to cooperate for most of the week.

But if there is rain I have no doubt that we will find it. 

See ya Tuesday!

[RDawson]

Been storming here the last few weeks, record setting rainfall and temps. Cooling down tomorrow, low 60’s when I leave Wednesday and 90’s when I come back Sunday. 

[Skid]

I just changed my oil this week and used Mobile V-Twin 20W-50, but I'm running a completely different breed. 

[Riderduke]

I'll be coming in on Thursday late afternoon..  I'm staying at the Comfort Inn...  I'm soo looking forward to this weekend

[Woody]

[RDawson]

Another Vogel in the books.

We had a great time and enjoyed seeing everyone.

Thanks R Dawson for the carb sinc.

Only 51 weeks until Asheville.

[Skid]

I’m home safely after a great time seeing & riding with everyone. When I left out this morning from the campground, the GPS said ETA was 1:44 pm. I got home at 1:26 pm. I beat the GPS by 18 minutes with two stops for gas. Not bad for an old Harley 

[RDawson]

Had a great time, rolled in about 2:30 after a couple gas stops and a brunch break.
