250- 500 miles a qt is normal?? Heck I'm tired of buying oil and been adding a qt a week. Been blowing smoke every time I let off the gas I believe due to valves, but I ride more then 250 miles a week so I guess I shouldn't worry about it Soo much

The ole Iron strikes again.

The hot bartender bought me and my friend drinks all night, what a nice lady
I love not having to spend money!

Then I got the hottest blonde South American goddess's number with an ass Jesus molded himself , and she don't even know I have an Ironhead

I guess it adds points to your soul brotha! and chicks dig soul brothas ;D

Oh, most of my oil usage comes from sumping. I just drained 60oz out the primary the other day, (only supposed to have 24oz), I don't burn much really.

When you think of our bikes as 500lb. vibrators then it all makes sense

I would've felt creepy taking pictures of her ass but maybe if things progress I'll send you some good ones

And yes I do Bruc, the oil pump is just such a pain in the ass to get to that it doesn't bother me to drain and refill the primary every week.
