All you here from people is how dangerous motorcycles are.These are the people that have never been on a motorcycle so they just don’t get it.Plus most of them make it dangerous for us.How many times have you been out for a ride and cut off by someone talking or texting on their cell phone or even just talking to the person in the car with them not paying attention.So why ride well you don’t have to deal with your cellphone to start.Every ride is unique instead of being locked up in a vehicle you are outside wind, rain, sun and some in the snow.When is the last time you drove by something in a car and you could smell the food from every different restaurant you passed.Another thing is did you ever notice when two motorcycles pass each other they give each other a wave.Does not matter what type of bike it’s just because we will help each other out and we are just all out for a ride.It is not the time to think about your problems because there are none.The only problem is the best piece of road to ride on.On a good ride you can just really get lost.Went out to Harley parts swap meet a while ago and kept falling behind I was to busy just checking out the scenery and relaxing.When is the last time you could say you did that in your car with people talking, the stereo turned up and the cell phone ringing.Being out on a motorcycle affects all your senses.Everything you see is a little bigger because your not looking thru a window.You feel the wind.To really know how to ride you have to let go.Wherever you are going you will get there soon enough.You just enjoy the ride it does not matter where you are going it’s about how you get there.Started this out why do you ride it’s really hard to explain unless you have been out on a motorcycle but I hope this gives anyone who hasn’t ridden an idea of what it is like.I was hooked from my first ride as a kid about 6 when my 12 year old neighbor took me for a ride on a mini bike.The next time you see a motorcycle pay attention and make it safer for us.After all we are just out for a ride.
A mechanic was removing a cylinder head from the engine of a Harley Davidson
motorcycle when he spotted a well-known heart surgeon in his shop..
The mechanic shouted across the garage, “Hey, Doc, can I ask you a question?”
The surgeon a bit surprised, walked over to the mechanic working on the motorcycle.
The mechanic straightened up, wiped his hands on a rag and asked,
“So Doc, look at this engine. I open its heart, take the valves out, fix ‘em, put ‘em back in,
and when I finish, it works just like new. So how come I get such a small salary
and you get the really big bucks, when you and I are doing basically the same work?”
The surgeon paused, smiled and leaned over, and whispered to the mechanic…
“Try doing it with the engine running.”
The TWIN CAM 88 was released in 1999.Harley Davidson original nicknamed this a “BLOCKHEAD” due to the fatter top end.This was not a nickname that caught on.The TWIN CAM has a 2 piece rocker box cover and the centers of the covers look like they have a block sticking out in the middle of the side.They have 2 cams unlike any of there predecessors, improved oiling system and 60% more cooling fins.Their are many models of TWIN CAMS the original is the 88 built from 1999-2006 which was a 1450cc engine.The next was the TWIN CAM 88B (B stands for counter balanced),2000 they released the 95 TWIN CAM a 1550 cc engine used in CVO models, a 96 TWINCAM 1584 cc model used in the STREETBOB, SUPERGLIDE and DYNA MODELS.The 103 TWIN CAM 1690 cc engine was used in TOUR MODELS and the 110 TWIN CAM 1802 cc was used in CVO models.
This for those of us who work on our own bikes or those who just want to know more about HARLEY DAVIDSON motorcycles. The idea is to give as much technical support as possible.Also for those who know more to throw in some information to help the rest of us out.Just starting up but will have a page to show off your harley plus some hard to find tech diagrams.Remember this is a work in progress so if you have some tips,stories or any helpful information I will be glad to post your comments.
