Does anyone have any details on this?

 

I'd say it's related to sumping.

 

I do realize that, but I'm looking for the specific details that it contains.

 

I'm just a guy on the internet. The rumored fix is a newly designed oil pump that balances the high pressure side and the scavenge side.

There's quite a bit more than that on the net, but that's the sum total. Google M8 wet sumping, you'll get as much as me or anybody else knows.

 

I do appreciate what you're saying, and I've been aware of part numbers for oil pumps excetera for the last couple of weeks. Not that I'm anybody in the know, but it seems that Jamie from Fuel Moto has identified this and he shared the information with Bob Woods from Woods cam fame.

I'm just really interested in seeing exactly what Harley is doing with it. I have a couple of friends with a stage 3 and stage 4 on their CVOS that are having the symptoms that this bulletin addresses. I also have an oil cooled M8 then I'm doing a 120 kit on and I want to make sure that I get the most updated pump available. I believe this Bulletin will give us part numbers that may be more updated than the ones I currently have.

 

The information has been all over the internet for the last several weeks about the pump replacement as a possible fix. NO one knows if it really will fix it. Some have even said they got one and it did not, so the jury is still out.

Here is the bulletin

 

THIS GUY ^ is more than some guy on the internet.

 

So, I have a question. It does not seem clear to me if it's for CVO 114 with the 117 kit which have a longer stroke. Or is it for all M8 engines. I have a Road King with the Stage III kit and am planing a trip to Florida and Corpus Christi and back home to New Hampshire when the weather cools a bit. My local dealer who did the work knows nothing of this. I've got 2k on my bike, but all on Mountain Roads with only one 50 mile highway trip in 40* weather. I really don't want to be stuck far from home. I usually do 600+ mile days.

 

This repair is for any M8 engine with a SE stage III or IV added, only at this time.
