The blinker fluid is probably low, This is the only one I use.. recommended by a guy who knows it all (he rides a sportster).

I thought the Switchback was for girls who outgrew their Sportster's?

Put that on a tshirt for when people think you're riding a cute motorcycle.

The Sportster is Harley's high performance machine . I have ridden big baggers and many Softails with their low center of gravities and I can tell you even with their bemouth amounts of weight they are easier to handle than a Sporster with it's high center of gravity, if you can handle a Sporster you can ride anything .The Sporster is Harleys longest production bike to date . The Sporster is what has kept Harley in business all these years through the bad economic times . It is only a recent fad that big oversized overpriced geezer glides have taken over Harleys sales . Riders giving in to peer pressure because all their buddies have one . Drinking the cool-aide that the dealers are so happy to provide with their $ 30,000-$40,000 price tags . The Evo engine in the current Sporster line is almost the perfect engine . Take your $40,000 and go buy a nice SUV.

I agree, but first they have to be able to duplicate your concern. If this is as intermittent as you say, I think you should have volunteered to do some of the leg work for them. Those techs don't get paid to go out and drive your **** around for 2 or 3 hours just hoping it'll act up while they have it.
