More fun with aftermarket vendors

As I always get a kick out of the misinformation and misunderstanding of the Bonneville line (or any car line for that matter), and in the interest of giving all of you a chance to laugh at, and ridicule if necessary, these faux pas too...

Because your original topic makes it a lounge post. Suggesting a maintenance item keeps it in General....

General Chat
Chat about all things Bonneville (and related cars). Off-topic stuff should be in the lounge, and all mechanical problems should be posted in the proper forum.

Nope on both counts...
