New but not 2.0

Been a while and was wondering what oil I should be using.

Most health experts these days recommend using a water-based lube.  Less messy and easier clean-up on the sheets, too.

Your bike shouldn't be using any oil. If it is check valve seals and ring blow by.

Oh wait it's a Harley, that normal. 🤣

2012 pushing 80 thousand no breakdowns no oil leaks and still not burning oil. But cant claim the same for myself been a tough couple of years. But all is good for now. Got in about 250 miles this week. Heading out tomorrow on a 300 mile run to say goodbye to a old friend. Its getting to common now. Jim maybe we can meet up at Fishers in Peninsula for a beer or coke before the snow flies I imagine you are retired by now. I Heard you bought a land yacht (Goldwing) some were. Let me know if you can meet up.

Yep, retired this spring. It awesome. Don't let the new goldwings fool you, they are rockets but I have slowed down.

Would love to meet up and Fishers is a great idea.

This coming week I am free each night except Tuesday. Tuesday night I am going to shoot little kids with a high powered BB gun.
