Hey,
I just bought a 2010 SEUC and went in to the dealer for my 1K service, plus Monster Ovals, RT, and H-D Heavy Breather. Well what do you know--they couldn't change the trans fluid because the factory welded the cross-member in the wrong location! Now, they say I need a frame swap from the factory . . . are you kidding me??
Anybody else had this happen or know about it? Holy crap.

What do you expect when MOCO shuts down the Custome Vehicle Assembly Line and as of 2010 the CVO's are assembled on their 75 person standard assembly line. My 09 SEUC was assembled by 4 specialists not the 75 that now assembles the CVO. They need to reduce the price and change the name. CVO's are no longer CUSTOM! I picked this up from a post earlier in the year from one of the CVO team that was being disbanded to save money.

This sounds like a freak thing. I'd be taking my own pictures of it, to start with.....just in case you end up in court with it.
This is the second year for this frame so how does something like this happen this far into production? I wouldn't be asking for a new bike, I'd be demanding it. You better be talking to a consumer affairs attorney.

Now that's some funny chit right there.
But it does beg the question......."then why are you down here in the CVO board looking for ideas on how to make yours custom".
