... you do not get the harmonics through the bike like you would with these "American" style V-twins. The same goes for automotive.

I beg to differ. 4 different harley families and I did not use locker but to the tans plate to the frame. They were well abused with zero leaks. Everything else was a dry install, meaning, gasket sealer or locker, sans the engine case with harley case sealer. And yes, I oiled my head bolts. I am so glad I work on my own bikes and not contaminate the engine cavity with the latest crap an archimedes screw can't handle.

:2thumbs: I love ya, bigdog. I wish we could have a bigdog biker build-off. No shop manuals either. First bike to leak loses... :D

Wow!!! :loony: And that right there is the difference between a real Technician and a back yard-shade tree poser. :lol:
You bust on me for having a real education, claiming you know more than I... but for a fact, you need some educating boy. Wowzers :loony::loony:
