It's way past time for an argument on this post, so here goes;
What type of oil should you use with this light bulb?

Coconut oil
 

Although the coconut is not actually pear shaped, but similar, as may be considered by some, the stem of the light bulb, in fact, should be lightly oiled with the oil of the coconut from the semi round shell of the coconut. Thus, the obvious choice of oil when changing a light bulb, would be coconut oil.

The coconut oil should come from a co-opertive producing same and not from corporate oil companies as by purchasing coconut oil from local co-ops one assists the region from which the coconut oil was produced.

Move over Dulles brothers who prior to becoming Secretary of State and Director CIA USA worked for a law firm representing the exploitive United Fruit company that stole banana and other fruit profits from Central American republics for years.

How's that Tourider? Someone is surly going to find something to disagree with, or agree with. Remeber, let's keep this thread relevant, on topic and with a minimum of politics, economics, or anything else that might bring some shade of reason or meaning.

xfiltrate eat, drink and oil your lightbulbs with coconut oil.

Has anyone decoded my first post this thread?

Will the use of coconut oil as opposed to the genuine manufacturers oil affect my warranty?
Oh, and it's Surely.

Does your ranch in FLagstaff have light bulbs, or luz mal? I am more or less headed your way in the next week or so.

I am in Moab on my way from Nova Scotia to Arizona thence Mexico and on to Cuba. When I think of lights in the sky they are the ones that saved my ass when negotiating my way from Manaus to Venezuala in the dark and through a thunderstorm on a slick dirt road amidst encroaching jungle and squared off against potholes dancing all the way across the road threatening to eat my bike or bounce me into the swamps where anacondas waited. No, there were no lights on the road, not from other vehicles, houses along the road, certainly not from the moon or stars, and hardly from my headlight which was covered with mud. My salvation was in the way of blessed lightening ahead to the left which moved across in front of me and closer, and blessed be with each flash I could see the potholes, memorize them for a hundred meter dash through this mine-field until the next luz magnifique could correct me and inspire me for more. In the end everything was hunky-dory. The End.

We'll leave the lights on for you
 

larrysimson, we are possibly on your route... at our ranch in Flagstaff, Arizona. Please stop by and visit or overnight. We have bed and facilities and camping if you prefer.

Private message me for phone # and directions.

We are riding to Mexico for the winter .. leaving Flagstaff in about three weeks.

Your story was like the sound of laughter coming out of the darkness, very exciting.

xfiltrate eat , drink and stay out of the pot holes

If it walks like a duck, etc. Besides, my old bikes are still in tungsten land. :)

"Litpear" it is then; no controversy or doubt there.

Fork handles :oops2:

Light bulbs verses luz mal or candles...
 

I am delighted to report that Larrysimpson, (recent hubber on this thread) a very interesting Canadian, has been at our ranch for the last few nights.

Today he visited the Grand Canyon and upon his return we fed him a home cooked meal and wine at our world class Spy Bar. The Spy Bar is the bar at our ranch and lit by indirect lighting and candles. NO luz mal was present this evening.

Larry continues his journey by BMW 700 (2015) From Halifax to Phoenix and next year will board the Stahlratte, yes that famous sailboat that does Panama to Colombia, for a three day crossing from Isla Mujeras , Mexico to Cuba and then back to Mexico after in three weeks in Cuba.

Larry is a writer/journalist who has ridden Africa and South America too and more, much more...

Cool guy.

And breaking news for all you looking for a mate to ride.... with? Elisa has found another young professor - woman who rides her own moto and it is just too bad more of you have not taken us up on our hospitality ... and the possibility of meeting her.... we are finishing up chores - including changing light bulbs - with coconut oil, of course, and doing our final check list for we will be spending this winter on the west coast of Mexico.

Meanwhile back at the ranch...The San Francisco peaks had snow this morning , weather here below the peaks at 7,000 ft is superb... the peaks are about 12,000 ft. no luz mal reported...

xfiltrate eat , drink and do yourself a favor and get to know larrysimpson... and if you are planning on visiting do it now....

please can we keep this topic on post.

oops, sorry, just realised the OP was 8 years ago so I am outside the 6 years window:oops2:

That would be a first!

It's high time that there is a restriction on the number of links to be included in a single post - perhaps even a limit within a whole thread?
Maybe there can be a voluntary rule (something like that one about not going off topic :innocent:)

:eek3:

I can categorically refute this.
I am just 7 1/2 years old.

But, is there an age limit for registering with the HUBB?
A lower age limit for minors, who haven't yet learnt to construct sentences, and an upper for those who are potentially senile and banging on about the good old days of acytelene lamps on their belt driven, 2 speed motorcycle (not bike, not motobike).

Totally pointless posts

Pointless topics...

That's just got to be something from the next edition of the Harley accessories for hipsters catalogue. :rofl:
