ace is the place with the helpful hardware ( non-threatening gender-neutral bipedal organism succumbing to political correctness) .

Go ahead sing along :hi:

Bipedal is offensive to quadrupeds.

:lmao:

The Tetrapod police would like a word with you both.........

You're violating my "safe space!" >:(

:lmao:

This must have struck a chord, now back to regularly scheduled thread. :lmao:

My air filter just got full of oil and starved the motor(took me a while to figure out what was wrong). I pull the hose off of the breather box and just let it go to the ground.

Ace
 

"Helpful" insinuates that other hardware stores are lacking or less than ...shame shame shame... Can't have them feeling bad. I guess they should just say Ace is a store.....and that will pacify the weenies.

That is very unusual. :hmm: Are you confident you are not over filling the engine with motor oil?

I know this is an old thread but I just tagged/titled 2 Hawks here in NC. Make sure the MCO says motorcycle NOT dirt bike. The DMV person got hung up on the Make code and I told her to use CHQU which is Chongquing Haosen Motorcycle Co. LTD (the manufacturer of the Hawk) and everything else went off without a hitch.
