Reading the different lines that individuals have taken the time to share on this forum with others can be found no where else on this earth. It was many years ago when an old gentleman (a former HD Factory Racing Mech turned Cop) showed me how to use the "old matchbook and cigarette papers trick" in an emergency to make an old 48 pan head run like a dream. I thought that he was nuts! I was stranded, the bike just wouldn't run but he made it run magically. And then he told me that if I couldn't get 24,000 miles out of a drive chain that I was abusing the machine and didn't deserve to ride it. Then I thought that he was completely crazy.
So many years ago. . .
