Just a heads up, and I might be late to the party on this one, but AutoZone is carrying full synthetic DOT 4 now, $3.49 a pint. About half of what my dealer charges.

It's certainly easier than hunting down wild brakes and milking them for their precious fluids. That's why I'm not allowed in the state of Minnesota anymore.

don't feel bad, they just realized recently that it was a good advertising tactic.  i saw it on a bottle and thought "huh?  how else would you get it?"...  next they'll start advertising that brake fluid is hydrophilic and is good with paint removal.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.
