    In the article was a statement that the German Horex motorcycles were being resurrected with a new V-6 supercharged 200hp motor. http://www.motorcycle.com/gallery/gallery.php/d/242132-3/061510-horex-05.jpg? http://www.motorcycle.com/news/horex-brand-resurrected-in-germany-89656.html Its a 15degree v6 engine with 3 cams. Very unusual design. http://www.motorcycle.com/gallery/gallery.php/d/242156-2/061510-horex-02.jpg

    I've run a ME 880 front with E3 rear for about 4,000 miles. No handling problems I can feel on my RSV.

    If you want a bike to restore and ride short distances or trailer to Brit bike vintage rallies, its just the thing. However, its not a reliable, long haul, comfortable riding machine. air cooled 3 cylinder. basically the last breath for 1930's technology. I love them, but they are what they are.

    yep. we can do that. Just ride 53 all the way to GA400 on the way home. Which is a nice ride too.

    ok. Lets meet at the Dairy Queen in Cumming, GA at 8:30am for breakfast KSU at 9:00am The Dairy Queen is on GA20 and GA9, 103 Atlanta Road. We'll ride GA20 to Canton, then take GA140 to Waleska, Adairsville, then pick up GA 53 into Rome. Hows that sound? Let me know who wants to ride together? I want to be at Fuddruckers by 11:45am. Lunch at noon. I have NOT reserved a room, since there aren't enough of us for that. So I'll just go in and throw my helmet on a big table to reserve it a few minutes early. Randy

    I believe that acids are primarily a by-product of combustion and moisture and metallic wear, although the breakdown of the oil and additives may also play a part. Oils have additives to neutralize the acids. But time takes its toll. I go 8,000-10,000 miles between oil changes in my car. But automotive engine oil contains better detergents and additives than one should use in a wet clutch motorcycle. The motorcycle engine oil (unlike a car) also circulates thru the transmission where there are gears in constant mesh in the lubricant which will cause oil breakdown.

    Bob, Good idea there's a M&E this Saturday March 17. The March on Rome is happening. And Steve Wagner has scheduled the north Georgia maintenance day for March 31st. schedule a M&E and they will come (or at least ride). I'm planning on going to both the Freebird MD and the International in NY. We can ride together and stop at all the Eagle Lodges along the route. Keep me in the loop for your ride down to St.Marys.

    I would change once per year minimum beause of acids that may build up in the oil, irrespective of any breakdown in lubricity. I don't have any scientific evidence or study to reinforce that thought.

    I'm going to report you tothe SPAM Defamation League.

    yes My rules of thumb are. 1. at least once a year for any oil 2. 4,000 miles for conventional oil 3. 6,000 miles for full synthetic oil 4. always change the filter

    There have usually been 2 models of RSV and RSTD each year. A 'regular' and an 'S' model. The S model has had some additional chrome and will be more expensive. I believe the black Midnights have always been that year's S model. Sometimes with chrome studs around the seats.

    yep and if you go to google and search for 'widget' 2/3 of the search results will be wierd sounding links where the 3 line google summary reads as if the link has something to say about widgets, but when you get there its just a redirection page to ebay.
