Just completed my first road trip out West on my 2018 FLHCS Heritage. 2875 miles in 9 days (avg 319/day; max 442 in one day). 7959 miles to date since I bought it new in October. Zero problems on trip. This bike is fantastic!
JES fangs, front and rear guards, hand guards, sissy bar and rack.
Don't know of what issues you are talking about??????[/QUOTE]
Well, there is the belt squeal "WHOOP" and the condensation in he speedometer. Doubt either were fixed. Checked the two new 2020 Heritages off the truck yesterday and there were a big difference in belt tension as delivered - one very tight, the other had maybe 1/8 by my uncalibrated hand push. The speedo looked the same as 18 & 19 models

Well my bike pulls to the left slightly in ya take your hands off. Belt is on the out side of the pulley no whoop whoop. New rear tomorrow and it better go down the road straight. Not losing time chasing it before that.
As far as speedo condensation i would like to know where the people are from, those that have this problem. I live in b.c. Canada out west ride in all weather from near freezing to 100 f. 5 above celeus to 38 above. Rain or shine. 35 years riding and never had one fog up. Could it be the humidity out east?
(Only good thing to come from the east is the road west) lol, sorry
I had a noise on my bike which got louder the more miles I put on during a ride. It wouldn't be there in beginning of ride. It was interment as I complained to dealer. On first oil change they said the belt was tight and reset it. The moan it made is gone but I can still hear it (slight moan) on a roll with clutch pulled in

You could do what I do; Take out my hearing aids and raise the volume on my helmet speakers....can barely hear my Rinearts. I would never hear the little moan!

Just my opinion. But the way to solve any belt/alignment issues is to do it yourself. I had to spend about 50 bucks on tools but they paid for themselves the first time I adjusted it. And unlike an HD tech I took the time to really measure everything carefully. I FINALLY got my Speedo replaced under warranty. But it was a battle. So far no condensation what so ever with the new one. Might not last but good so far.
