07 oil leaking
My 07 1200 Custom has 58 miles on it and there is oil seeping out bu the front head bolts on both cylinders?
It is not running but I can see where the oil has left a residue!
This is not making me feel good about this bike, it is my first harley. Have all my friends with jap bikes been telling me the truth.

I have 7,000 miles and mine and it has never leaked a drop of oil. Leaking used to be normal, but not now. You have a two year warrenty. Take it back to the dealer and get them to look at it. What have your metric bike friends been telling you about HD bikes? Did they tell you HD was the "dark side"?

RE: 07 oil leaking
Really? I thought I had a leak and wound up being nothing but a fuel over flow issue be cause I dumped the bike.lol. My buddie has a 1200C and had a oil leak when he first got his and hasn't had a problem since. I have been around Harleys since I was 9. They are not your typical ricer bike. A completely different animal. Get it fixed and you won't have any other issues.

RE: 07 oil leaking
They are always telling me that I need to take some of my 10 month olds diapers and put them on the garage floor under the bike to catch the oil.
I had leaky heads on my kawi as well so I'm not totally dissatisfied, just sucks to have a new bike with a prob.
