Yes it has taken me forever, no I probably did not include your favorite oil, yes I know oils change all the time. Despite all that, here is the result of about a year and a half (off and on) of work.
I've learned a lot doing this, I hope everyone can benefit in some small way from the information I've compiled. It will not end the "Great Oil Debate" but hopefully it will shed some light on some key points for everyone.
Special thanks go to:
... and the countless others who have helped with reading proofs, offering suggestions, and generally putting up with my crap.
Without further adieu, presented for your edification; Oil and the Harley Davidson Motorcycle.
