I just sold a 2017 TriGlide, Stage 1, with 11,700 mile on it. Never had any issue at all with the engine.

Me! (32,000km) I installed the Williams clutch push rod, but never had transfer. Did it whilst a fix was available since some bikes develop the issue at large mileages.

Well my Road King hasn't moved since Oct 28th 2018 because of snow and ice but up till then I've had 17300 Km of trouble free riding. Trailered my bike into an Indy in Dec and had a Stage 2 done so it's a long wait to spring. I may order the bigger push rod and install this winter yet just for piece of mind even though mine doesn't seem to have transfered any oil to date.All you in Australia and the warmer climes enjoy your riding.

What components did you use in your Stage 2? All OEM parts or aftermarket?

I went with S&S MK45 slip ons decatted the headpipe and the S&S 475 cam. I'd left it completely stock till the warranty was finished this last fall.

I've got just past 14k miles on my 2018 RGU. My clutch switch pack was replaced early on. I had the clutch actuator recall done. And recently the dealer shop replaced my ABS module because it tested bad. I had complained about vibrations in the brake lever as I slowed from highway cruise speeds. My vibrations are still there. I suspect the ABS module was bad but wasn't causing the vibrations. I think my front rotors are warped. I can live with it until I get new tires in a few weeks.

Other than this, the bike is flawless and a wonderful, trustworthy ride.
