Low and behold, he has the patent. He is an awesome bike builder. I always let him set up for free in my parking lot of the DogHouse N. during bikeweek in MB. Hopefully, he will get one made soon enough for me. Seriously guys, he built a bike from the ground up during bike week in front of everybody so check out his website at ewdcycles.com
dude has got some sweet bikes on there man !!!!!

I'm sick to my stomach!
I would be pissed and sick at the same time. I agree with everyone else, make them give you a rental, even if you don't really care to have one. Tell them you want the CVO Softail Springer as a rental . LMAO

Is there any custom paint sets offered by Harley that you like? Maybe they can cover most of the price.

No I actually like the paint on there now. Plus, I have my rims powdercoated the same color to match, which I think is pretty sweet. I just want my sh*t fixed in a reasonable amount of time.

i'm afraid it's probably gonna take a while man. whenever you order a painted part from HD it usually takes at least a month.

ride the bike with the dent on it for now.

Sorry to hear about your bad luck. But there is no reason you can't ride it with the dent and get a loaner while it is getting repaired.

Can you tell me where you got your rims and a ballpark on what they cost? I've got the same Rocker C in the same color. Your rims are just what I've been looking for!

NICE RIDE!

**** happens and they surely didnt do it on purpose. At least they stepped up and are going to take care of it. You cant ride it with a chip?
