Milwaukee 8 problems
So bought the Triglide on Saturday. Yesterday reverse gear would not work, circuit breaker not tripped. Today after a 5 mile ride I stop at some lights and I get an Oil warning light. Rev the bike and it goes out. Checked the info screen and it says OK or check Oil not the pressure it used to on the 2016 Ultra I had before.
Spoke to Harley and they want the dealer to resolve this. It has 120 miles on the bike, shouldnInpush for a new bike or new engine?

Speaking to Harley is a last resort, not the first. As stated, give your selling dealer a chance to diagnose and correct. Buy backs and new motors are not the norm with motorcycles with 120 miles on it. It is disappointing to have an issue, but not the end of the world either.
