Maybe since they are pricing them like Harleys now, they should leak oil too.

Does anyone else find this very amusing??????? Triumph motorbike leaking oil once upon a time if your triumph did not leak oil you were worried.

I hope it's not serious, not as easy to heal up as we get older.

I hope we get to meet some day. I swear I’m going to look when we are at the urinal, to see if you’ve got any balls.

If your bike is not leaking when you get it it will not have this problem.

Would be good to dyno a few. Get the revs up and test. Also get some figures

First off, stop hanging out at the urinals and secondly, stop watching dudes pee. I have balls and my wife opens her purse and shows them to me on occasion.

I'll have to remember to wait to pee until Mel isn't in the restroom.
