OK, some did, and my comment was tongue in cheek. But there's NO reason what-so-ever to try an belittle others that choose something different. It matters not what kind of bike you're on when a cell phone using idiot in their Explorer turns left in front of you. We all take the same chances, we all bleed the same, we die the same.

Oh Boy another oil thread!!
THE factory will, in fact, VOID your warrantee if, after an oil analysis, it finds "another oil" other than H-D is AT FAULT for an engine failure..
The Magneson Act has a section that addresses this issue, and it does state that if an "aftermarket" part (or oil) is the CAUSE of a failure, the warrantee CAN be voided.. read the WHOLE act not just the first few paragraphs... Congress basically CYA'd themselves with that provision...
That's the way it works folks...so put in H-D oil for the duration of your warrantee and don't worry about it..
All ya'll do is b*tch about this and that from the factory.. if ya don't like it.. BUY A HONDA!!!

Because I own a Harley doesn't make me a brother to every Harly rider.
And if you own a Honda, don't pull up next to me and think we are brothers. That is just pathetic wishful thinking on their behalf.
All motorcycles and riders are not equals.
And this is not the thread to be b*thcing about people who don't love all motorcycles.

The 'Honda' riff is as tiresome as the 'If I have to explain it, you wouldn't understand' reponse that gets tossed around a lot. They're both lazy, adolescent answers meant to excuse the inability to engage in an honest dialogue abouta particularissue that might reflect negatively on Harley-Davidson. A better reaction to such topics would be to follow the advice, "If you don't have anything to say, don't say it."

P.S. Anybody else tired of the "Buy a Honda" retort used by so many? I love Harley-Davidsons, been riding them for almost 30 years and even sport a Harley tattoo. That certainly does not mean that I blindly follow a large multi-national corporation no matter what they do.

RE: Have you seen the new Harley Enthusiast Mag?
question,,,,, whats wrong with using HD oil anyways??????
is it cause you think theres a miracle oil out there that heals all sick 07's?
cause 1 guys says his runs 500 degrees cooler?one smells like a ribeye steak cookin?
maybe we should send e-mails to the big oil companies,(mobil,amisoil etc),,, bet they would have some thoughts about HD's coments.
has anyone ever tryed to use it while sun bathing?
last question,
will it do away with unwanted dogs if ingested?

RE: Have you seen the new Harley Enthusiast Mag?
Wel, this has gone the usual way one of these threads go. They generally rank just below 1%er threads for the fussin' goin' on. At any rate, I'm dropping a few parting thoughts, then locking this turd.
1 - Use HDoil if you want.
2 - Use a better quality oil if you want.
3 - Don't believe everything; do your own research instead of simply spouting off what you heard/readsomeone say they heard someone say to someone else about someone's third cousin twice removed.
And finally - If anyone actually gets a letter back from the Enthusiast that actually addresses the issue in something besides self-serving BS, post it.
