Don't know how many Harleys you have owned in the past but they definitely are not a luxury ride. Don't get them confused with the Lexus or something... You're going to hear a **** all the time that's just the nature of the beast, especially with a solid mountain motor..

Glad you found this one... Good luck with the next one..

I am not expecting a "Lexus" ride out of a 29 year old bike but I do know the difference between normal noises and out of the ordinary. This noise was not normal and I was trying to nail down the source as I was afraid that it was coming from the primary.
