Here's why I'm asking for the Kit #...
After I got the Product Enhancement Campaign letter on Aug 18, to replace the CVO 110 Heads, I called the Dealer, who claimed to have the kit.
I made an appointment and dropped my bike off.
Well, that was Sept 6:
first they got the kit,
then they didn't get to it for a week,
then the kit is the wrong color and a new one had to be ordered,
now the kit is on back order with a release date of Oct 3,
so it looks like I might get my bike back on Oct 11,,, maybe.
I'm losing confidence they'll do the job with the right kit.
I won't go into all the promises they've made, Service Dept says one thing, Parts Dept says something else, Owner complaining it takes at least 8 or more hours but can only bill for 6.
I asked for a loaner and they laughed, only I was serious.
I'm trying to remain calm, but my patience is getting thin and my riding skills are getting rusty.
Hope someone can help me with that Kit # so I can verify they got the right one.
the kit part # should be 94675 for the 2008...How many miles do you have on the bike? We have done 5 in our shop and ALL have needed additional work...such as cylinders and pistons, as the gasket surfaces were out of spec and the cylinders were out of round. let me know if you need any addtl assistance.

The '09 SEUC has 3100 miles no leaks...
The '07 FXDSE has 3040 miles and back cyl is leaking at heads.
Going to the shop next week with it.
Came home yesterday from the Myrtle Beach rally with my bike in the back my truck. Something happened in the primary and from looking in from the derby cover it looks like the chain go on the stator cover. I'm so mad at the bike I can't bring myself to work on it. Had to come all the way back home and get my truck. Left out last Tuesday and leaked oil out of the head for 300 miles. Had to put rags on the bottom of the engine to keep it from running on the pipes. Had never leaked before. Talked to a guy at the motel that has the new heads and there making a lot of noise. Before he let out Sunday his had started leaking again. The guy riding with him was on a regular 08 because his 07 had given him so much trouble, Harley bought it back. I got rid of a 97 ultra that never gave any trouble and bought this oil leaking (when it's running) heat monster.
