Default Another 07 sale

HD has stood their ground w/this clatter noise and has told my attorney they will not fix this because there is no problem.I will not live w/this esp now knowing nothing is in the pipeline.Add me to the list of new bike sellers.

What a shame! You'll lose thousands of $ doing it. What would it cost to remove the heads and measure the squish zone? If you prove that it's out of spec., I'm betting HD would pick up the cost of repair.

Hey pitguy, I feel for your brother!!! My bike makes a lot of noise too. I can't pin point where it's comming from, and it's different every time I ride the bike. I'm just waiting for everything to pan out and I was hoping that you would get some kind of resolution. Hopefully some day the MOCO will come around and take care of it's loyal customers. Sorry that you had to resort to selling your bike.[:@]

pit,, I'm getting your mails, but for some reason, mine to you get returned??
anywho,,,dont sell just yet,,, lets see what hap's during this winter,, they are getting pressure!
Did you see the article in Cycle news??? they hammered on the heat issue a little, guided by the Co. it appears.
Like me,, if I'm not happy next summer, I'll trade for a 08.
But you know what I'm thinkin though,, a lot of us early bike buyers have their bikes put up, so the complaints might die a little,
somehow we gotta keep the pressure on, and you were our ambassador!
thanks for the e-mails though,,, good luck bud

Thanks guys I feel for all of you with this but HD just shunned me off.wouldnt listen,wouldnt seak to me anymore,wouldnt extend warrany,wouldnt say fix is coming.Kept saying it was always me.Well if it is then this isnt the bike for me.I have never had a problem with anything new Ive ever bought to the extent of this bike.HD has left a bad taste in my mouth and if you see me in a dealership somebody better call 911.If this was a used bike then I wouldnt have a problem w/it.But after upgrading just to get it to run better w/o the threat of it blowing up or catching me on fire,this is sad.I hope HD has corrected the new ones but Im not sure that these early ones havent given them all a bad name.I expected more from them,I expected more from this bike.Good luck guys,maybe things will get better.I had no choice but to sell bike,maybe the MOCO will listen to its new owner.
