General Discussion / Re: CL ad for G5, notice the descriptive pics

All above comments are true, but I was looking for more snide, sarcastic comments on yet another attempt to sell a bike at an inflated price with the worst possible set of photos imaginable.

Maybe his wife made him run the ad to sell the bike, and this is what he did to keep up his end of the bargain, with no intention of ever selling.

Kev - my old Sporty had it and I was always wiping grease off that was seeping out....

Ha ha yeah ok, I'm sure my 93 did too, but been too many years.

That was also back when the wheel bearings weren't sealed. I'd pull them, clean, and repack them every tire change (~10-15k miles).

Some Harleys (the FL's at least, I don't remember on the old Sportys) used to come with zerk fittings in the neck. You added grease until you saw a little at the top and bottom.

Where are you seeing things with Elvira in them?  The last time I saw her on TV was when Count's Customs fixed up a caddie for her.  Before that it was probably the 70s.
