Has anyone used the Mosquito traps like the Mega Catch or the Mosquito Magnet? Do they work?

Help, I Saw On Ebay Where Someone Had Added A Spin On Oil Filter On A 1977 Xlcr. Does Anyone Have Any Expierence With This? Does It Work? I Would Love To Have One. I Feel This Would Add Many Miles To The Life Of The Engine. Thanks, Xlb

Hello all, new to HD and the board.

Recently purchased a 2001 FLSTC. It has screaming eagle pipes/stage one now. I love the look of the big radius pipes and found them cheap on the internet. What are opinions on the two pipes on this bike. I do prefer loud pipes. Is there a performance difference between the two? Side by side which pipe is louder. Does anyone have cautionary advise for the newbie?

Your thoughts and opinions are appreciated.

Thanks

Will be doing my first oil change at home. Should I use reg. oil or switch to syn. type oil. What would be the benefits?

Well, so, I was on my way up to Denton for a TMGP race weekend and stopped by Houston Forward Air terminal to pick up my new mad dog class flat tracker, a Frank Nye built stroker 150cc XR100 with 16s front and rear and Lindeman suspension (imho, the best on little bikes). The rear shock set up by Lindeman is a Works Performance remote reservoir. Now, the suspension on this thing is $700 worth, a good used XR of this late 90s vintage would be over a thousand, and the motor work would take around $2200 and the motor is fresh, so I figured $1500 for the bike was decent! Here's a pic in front of my house in the drive way.

So, I got it up to Denton an could hardly wait to fire it, dumped what was left of a can of VP C12 into it....
