I did not realize that everyone in San Francisco was driving with their windows down and car stereos off.

People are seeing your headlights unless you are at their door.

If your bike needed head gaskets at 30K it was really abused. I had a 1949 H-D that was better than that. My 86 has +150k and NEVER blew a head gasket.

I am trying to recall ANY of my H-Ds that ever went down due to a head gasket; I can't.
