Broken Hub bolts
My stock 88ci twin cam has broken off (2) rear wheel hub bolts on that $1,488.0 custom Performance Machine wheel.
Dealer ain't got anything new to tell me, the manufacturer (Performance Machine) has a
"policy against discussing information with end users"
WTF, if it wasn't for us "end users" there wouldn't be a P.M, there wouldn't be a dealership.
I just want to ride, I don't to deal with this B.S.
PM should re-design the wheel from the solid breaking bolt idea, to the rubber cush drive like my other bike. It only a 900cc bike with 33,000 miles and NO Problems.

RE: Broken Hub bolts
We had an aftermarket front hub come in about a week ago,,,,,bearings spun,,,,spun the axle,,,,snapped the axle,,,gaurd rail kept him from going down...lucky1
Had a hard tail sporty in today,,,chopped,,,snapped both tail tubes on an aftermarket frame,,,busted the rear drum,,,,snaped break lever,,,when he went down,,,he just bought the bike 2 hours befor....lucky2
Had a custom shovel hardtail come in about 3 weeks ago,,,,snapped the backbone,,,,someone drilled for speed-o cable...lucky3
Not liking this trend I'm seeing,,,,,aftermarket shi*,,,,,hacks building bikes....
