    Had a evo softail for 7or8 years,can't say it wasn't reliable cos it was but when it did need parts I got stiffed! iron head sportsters are a no go unless your prepared to spend every weekend spannering on it,evo sportsters may be a better bet but then your back to considering cost again.like the man said you pays yer money you makes yer choice.

    read a couple of articals on this stuff sounds o.k. but costs about £16 for 5ltrs.i just drain the tank and carbs then use the drained fuel in our Gertys car.
