Howdy again Stretch, I hear ya. I'm tired of all the "harley only" stuff too.
I've spents some years now educating people on the Magnesson-Moss Act regarding warranties and such. Some dealerships are just ignorant of the facts, others are outright deceiving people, some can't get past the Harley loyalty.
So not only do I use a brand other than Harley, I like to use one that I can leave in twice as long. I like to do a lot of wrenching including messing with the fluids and such, but I'm getting a little older and it's hard, and it hurts, to get down there and do this stuff anymore, so I like changing my oil and filter once a year in both my bikes and my 3 cars.
Thanks for that forgivness, I'm close to my bible too and close to my Lord, and although that may not mean much to some, it does to me and I carry it into my business. I'm loyal to my customers and I wouldn't be associated with an oil that is a lie. I like lookin at my ugly face in the mirror at night and not feel guilty.
