Just finished breaking her in. So far so good. Is it safe to say that the sumping issues are put to rest or is it still too early to say? After reading all the issues I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t concerned.

Bought a new '18 Heritage Classic 114 at the end of May, 2018. Just turned over 20,000 miles today.

I've had 1 problem: the bolt that attaches the pre-load adjuster broke.

Love the bike. Handles fine, goes plenty fast for me.

Thanks, you’re right. After my ride into work today I was thinking the same. Stop worrying and just ride the hell out of it.

I only have 14k on my 2017 M8 (split my riding up between bikes). No issues so far.

I like to ride hard and fast sometimes but not most of the time . With over 26k miles I have added 3oz to transmission, 1oz at 12k miles and 2oz at 26k miles. Not a big deal for me and the M8 RK performs the best of all Harleys I've owned.
