Several tons of bias.

For every engine that has an issue, there are thousands that don't.

I'm astonished to read that a manufacturer makes a product that is subject to aging and wear. I thought we'd long gotten past the point where any forms of maintenance and repairs were ever required. ;-P

Wow... I'm surprised that you can find any Harleys running at all.. they are all surely in the shop. Only 54 serious problems? Did he get tired of typing??? I'd hate to see what he would have wrote if he didn't "love Harleys"

I guess we should all rush out and trade "up" for a sporty 1200. These big twins are obviously crap!
