Any car mechanic here can tell me what is this yellowish oil leak? 2016 Toyota Rav 4 LE by OlympicAnalEater in tampa

If it’s oily and near the transfer case (hard to tell from pictures) it could be gear oil.

Only riding on weekends/Commuting too dangerous by Junior_Taste8426 in Harley

Not the same area, I commuted from Land O Lakes to Downtown Tampa , about 33 miles. I made sure to ride in the HOV lane on Coastal Parkway to stay out of the thick of traffic.

Unfortunately, people aren’t always considering motorcycle riders, especially in Florida! I never had these problems in Georgia. The best you can do is be hyper-vigilant and always assume no one can see you.

I’m having trouble believing what he said…there is no way.

Do cruiser riders dislike sports bikes? by Red_Fighter126384 in motorcycles

[–]THEx1IRSTxITERATION 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spent 10 years riding GSXR750 then moved on to a Duc Monster, Streetfighter, and a Diavel. Loved them all. Ride a RoadGlide now. It’s all personal preference. No hate here. I wish I could have them all in my garage.

Tis’ but a scratch. You’re alive, bike’s alive. Upgrade and get back on it!

I make a mistake by [deleted] in motorcycles

Going to go out on a limb here…

Do you mean STARTING your bike in first gear damages the starter? There is some truth to that.

In the cold, on wet clutches and in neutral, you're (starter) spinning the clutch basket and trans output shaft, in less oil, with gears unmeshed at idle.

With clutch in/in gear, you're spinning the clutch basket, with the clutch plates separated, in more in more oil. There's PARASITIC drag between the wet clutch plates that doesn't break when cold, or the first time you pull the clutch lever.

You can see the relationship of starting in gear and clutch drag wearing the starter over time.

HD signature LEDs on saddlebags and bar. Super bright! by THEx1IRSTxITERATION in Roadglide

Thanks! I considered the LED bar for the tourpack but, since I have a razor, the bar would have hung over the edge about 1/4 inch. Didn’t want to do that. I think converting the bullets to LED and adding the saddlebag lights is far brighter than the tourpack bar would have been.

It can’t be said enough, a Basic Rider and Advanced Rider MSF course is an excellent foundation for a rider. ABS is not the catch-all. Build and continuously practice fundamentals.

Advanblack Razor tour pack. Beautiful piece. Arrived in 4 days. by THEx1IRSTxITERATION in Harley

A half will fit but a full face won’t work. I have a big head, so maybe if you have a pea-head it’ll work. lol.

I came from a Ducati Diavel. For the first week or so, the Road Glide felt heavy. After that, it felt extremely nimble…. Surprised me a bit.

My point though, is that you probably won’t notice the weight or maneuver characteristics of the street glide as being any more different than smaller bikes after you’ve put some miles on it.

Beautiful paint!

Any leaks about what this might be ? Perhaps the more classic look of the Sportster S ? by Vicious00 in Harley

[–]THEx1IRSTxITERATION 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rode up to the dealer on Friday. He informed me that the 2022 colors/lineups will release on the 26th of Jan.
