You are why I hesitate to post anything on here. It was not about the TPMS, it was about the lack of responce. If you could read you would have seen I used the pressure gauge. Quit waiting to jump down someones throat.

Well that is it for me. No more HD FORUM. What a bunch of losers that sit around and wait to bust on someone. The whole point of the post was the lack of response. Over and out.

That's all I'd need is my bike bitch-in at me about tire pressure. If I wanted something bitch-in and whining I'd leave the bike home and just take my old lady with me.

Come on now, this is not a dealer issue. You even mentioned some that tried to help but did not have parts, other dealers were really busy. Your issue did not leave you stranded. Patience man, patience. And no more whining, or your man card could get revoked.

What year is the bike? Maybe just a glitch in the electronics. Mine has been fine for a couple thousand miles since I reset the sensor.

At least I think I reset it. Heard about the reducing pressure and adding pressure for autos years ago. Worked on my Limited.

You have plenty whiners whining about what they perceive as whiners. Posting 3-4 times in a thread saying nothing gets their post count up. (Seems to mean something to them)

This is the New HD. On the road need service suck it up. You were lucky it was not a break down. Some end up waiting month or more. And they are still closing dealers down. The kind that would have done their best to get you in.

it wasn’t offensive, it was whining. You had no problem that a dealership was going to drop actual repairs to tell you what you already had figured out wasn’t a problem.

I have been at numerous dealerships across the country that have fixed my buddies hot rod, dang thing is not stock at all. He had legit issues, broken rear wheel, Odessa HD had a take off, rolled on. Primary had a rattle, pulled it in tightened the adjuster that came loose, Dothan HD, took a pothole in a turn broken spring on kickstand, Muscle Shoals HD, spring and tools to replace. More to add, point is, you were fine. Don’t rip on those that when your bike is really broke dick, they will generally fix it. You have to admit you went a bit far with the drama. Hopefully you see it. And not a dig, I believe everyone has done a drama story or two. Post up your trip with photos and make this a great memory, not a sensor failed so Harley sucks, it doesn’t.

If you really came to Vegas, I can turn off your TPMS system to get rid of the light. Then the dealer can turn it back on when you get home and have the new sensor installed. Message me if interested.
