    Lower rocker cover gasket replacement

    Well...now im super confused [confused]. The old rubber gasket i took off of the top cover is way taller than the middle one I am being told to use. That doesn't seem right. The top one though is the same height as the old one I removed.

    Rocker gasket replacement

    Hey Folks, I know that you have to drop the engine to replace the rocker gaskets. The process of dropping the engine scares me a bit so I was wondering if anyone ever took their bike to a dealership(harley) and got a quote for this. I assume the price is stupid high.

    Fan question

    Just reinstalled my rear cooling fan and just noticed when testing the fan it actually blows air away from the rear head. For some reason I was under the impression it blew air on the head. Is that correct? I'm feeling geriatric today. Thanks guys

    What is this hose for?

    I think maybe I explained it wrong. It's connected at the bottom of the bike where it should be. Where does the top end of the hose go?

    What is this hose for?

    Well...took apart my bike. Putting my bike back together and cant figure out for the life of me where this hose needs to go. The hose goes down the other side of the bike and is connected to the engine. Is this just a breather hose that needs to be zip tied to the frame? Thanks guys!

    Mobile vtwin 20-50

    I've been using the mobile vtwin 20w-50 for a while now and was thinking of switching to a cheaper 20-50. The mobile vtwin is about 10 bucks a piece. Has anyone had any horror stories about the cheaper 20w50? I just cant stomach shelling that money out anymore just because it says "vtwin" or...
