I have a 92 Tour Glide that was doing the same thing. It is most likely the oil pump check valve is either bad, stuck, or has build up of gunk on it. I took the external breather off and ran a long hose from it straight up, with the bike running and the breather on the end of the hose until it stopped blowing out. Then I changed my oil. Hope this helps. There is a Plug by the back push rods, remove the plug there is a screen under the plug. Clean the screen and reinstall it. this will fix you problem.

On my 1997 Harley Fatboy the front turn signals light up but do not blink. The rear turn signals operate properly. Any idea what would cause this?

Your turn signals may not be blinking properly because something may be wrong with the wiring or fuses. Take your Harley to an authorized dealer to have diagnostic testing done.

Is Mobil 1 a good oil for your Harley Davidson?

Yes. And unless you're made of money, Mobil 1 15W50 will work just as well as their V-twin specific 20W50 at a considerable savings. --- Some detractors will say auto oil containing moly will cause slip in the primary. Mobile 1 15W50 oil does not contain nearly enough moly to cause this to happen, and can be used in all three holes of your Harley Davidson with superior performance. Word of warning - Some service managers may use this as an excuse to void your warranty, so if your Harley is under warranty it is probably best to simply use Mobile 1 V-Twin 20W50.


Why would your 87 soft tail harley Davidson motorcycle with a 5 speed transmission keep eating the throw out bearing?

It sounds to me like the clutch adjustment isn't correct. If the cable is too tight, it will cause the bearing to spin continuosly causing it to wear out prematurely.
