Just turned 50k on my 2013 FLTRU love this bike Only big issue was replacing my comp at 40k . Everything else seems fine. Anything I should be watching listening for. For those of you with higher millage what failures if any did you experience. Thanks guys

 

71,500 on my limited. It's been flawless other than a few bulbs and a fuel relay.

 

Once you get to that point you pretty much know what's up with the bike. You should be good to go. Wheel bearings if you haven't touched them. Other than that you should be good to go until past 75k where you may want to refresh the top end should it need it. Other than that carry on with the mileage.

 

If it is like my 08 96 ci Road King, expect another 50k (minimum) out of it. If that new compensator gets noisy, it is probably just the spring pack getting a bit weak. I believe a shim pack to tighten the springs is around $3 plus a gasket and new bolt if you need to install it. The pictures of the latest compensators removed for noise all looked good, well lubricated and light wear. If and when Harley gets the springs "under control", that looks like a good design. I am installing 2 of them today, one on my son's bike and the other on mine.

 

Just carry on riding - don't have nightmares!

 

Continue with that regular maintenance with excellent materials! I venture to say that you won't need to open up your engine until well over 100K...top OR bottom end!

 

Cam Chain tensioners need to be inspected and or replaced. Twin cams with the hyd tensioners are good to about 75,000 miles if you run synthetic oil

 

How do your lifters sound? They are not very good from the factory. Put in a set of cams when its apart?

 

the biggest thing to deal with is the 50K service IF you follow Harley's service schedule! You do a front fork rebuild then and if you are not doing the work yourself it's a little pricey. Other than that you probably GTG for another 50K. My 09 went 108K with little more than regular maintenance.

 

If you maintain it well, you'll easily get 100,000 trouble free miles out of it. On my '04 FL, I broke 100,000 on a ride to Sturgis last year. I have replaced the lifters and a few seals. My bike had the spring loaded cam chain tensioners. I changed them to the hydraulics at 75,000 miles even though there was very little wear on the originals. The bike is almost at 110,000 miles now and it runs great. Good luck.
