Mine made it 6,000 miles...

Norty, is that your front or rear? also drive or brake side?
after my rear drive side failed at 26K, am running belt looser than specs now as my drive side was toast but the disc side not bad.

Agreed. Only good thing about new LR besides the 107 is that it had a 5 gallon tank. Now all HD needs to do is offer a LR S 114.

Rear. Drive side. Bearing had literally sawn the outside race in half...
***** came rolling out.
I've adjusted my belt looser as well.

Sadly that will not fix the look of the rear fender strut area of the bike. This is where I see a mish mash of LR and Fatboy. I love the 1977 character of the LR and sadly it is missing in the new bike.

I agree but it seems HD is moving in a different direction. If HD offers a LR S 114 with dual disc brakes and a 5 gallon tank, it could be my next bike.
