Hello so I did do leg work when I was riding I took photos and a video plus I send then everyone the dealer watch the video and we're on my side I think "hd" hates when the customer is right. I went through 4 customer service advisors before I got one that rides a ss and he did really care it took him 2 days but he got it done my hats off too him

Totally disagree!
So...what? A rider's so-called freedom is based on the length of his/her warranty?? Your bike is going to break sooner or later, and someone's going to have to fix it? Freedom is choosing who that will be. So you have a choice. Make enough money so you can pay a dealer or other bike tech do it, or acquire the know-how to do it yourself. To me always having to depend on someone to look after/maintain/fix your ride is not really freedom at all. Back in the day, guys who rode Harley's didn't depend on the MoCo/dealer to fix their ride. They did it themselves or had a circle of friends who rallied around them to get it fixed and back on the road. Then came the 90's and every white-collar baby-boomer yuppie wanted to be a weekend warrior badass biker, but didn't want to learn how to wrench a bike, so they figured that since they spent their disposable income on a toy bike, they were entitled to have the MoCo make and keep perfectly running machines for the duration. Unfortunately, the MoCo caved and began catering to these...people. Harley's are now luxury items and the dealers have turned into department stores. Matches most people's definition of "freedom" these days: administered by the government. But I won't get into THAT!
