Does this sound familiar.

Heap many moons ago when I got my first Harley, which I still have, people used to ask me "is that a real Harley?". This is in the UK and they were far a few between.

If anything went wrong I pulled over and opened a small tool bag and fixed whatever it was there and then.

Now if anything goes wrong I unpack my laptop plug in cables and run a complete diagnosis to find out it is the same problem I was having over 20years ago.

So I open my small tool bag and fix it. Then I have to run the diagnosis programme to clear the error codes etc etc etc.

Electronics are just a load of crap and quite unnecessary in many cases.

How did we manage without them? Easily.

Still no trouble code for a connecting rod (dang I can't remember the name y'all call it over there) sticking out of the case.

Does your Harley have metric sizes on it?

They all do...the battery lugs use bolts and nuts that take a 10mm wrench.

Mine seems held together with an inordinate amount of torx screws.

Huh. WELL- my Harley rip-off came with its own oil leak. How's that for authenticity?

I'll bet no one has as much duct tape on theirs as Roadwolf.

I'm hoping that my new HD tranny is delivered soon and I win my lawsuit against the stealership.
