Cracked Primary
ok 4986 miles and my primary is cracked. Had bike in shop trying to locate whats causing the annoying vibration in my floor boards. Crankcase checked out good. Then Tech found a crack in my primary near the oil plug. What is up with this? I started to buy a goldwing but have wanted all my life toown a Harley.Beginning to think I made a big mistake. To beat all I love my 07 EGC.

RE: Cracked Primary
by the way, the JB weld thing was joke. There was a thread last year that went on and on about a guy using jb weld toseal his leaking drain plug. he wanted Harley to warranty it when he could not get it out and found the leak was a crack and not the plug. The thread was a joke too, I think,just lots of people took it serious.
The chrome on my primary discolored and the dealer changed it under warrantywith no problem.
