Changed mine out today and glad i did.&nbsp\\; Bought the bike in October 2007 so it was built in the period stated in these forums.&nbsp\\; Don't know how much longer it would have lasted, but there were definite weaknesses in the old canister.

 

for the $33 i paid and the 40 minutes it took to change it (or less) i would definitely recommend the change.

 

If&nbsp\\;I were on the road I might pay to have it changed but other wise it's a factory defect............ and that is a warranted item. I have not had a problem yet,&nbsp\\;but the dealer is going to change mine this week for free.

 

Why would you pay if you were on the road? It would be under warranty.&nbsp\\; But the point is do you want to break down on the road to save $32?

 

I was stranded yesterday (Sunday) outside of Billings Montana.&nbsp\\; Dealer won't have it fixed until Thursday.&nbsp\\; Sucks!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I'd rather pay the $32 up front to not wait at the dealership&nbsp\\;for 1/2 a day (or more)&nbsp\\;or getting stranded on the side of the road

 

3200 miles on a street glide here in MA, towed to the dealer Friday,&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;sitting in the dealer now they said the part would be there today, and&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;I got charged 80$ for the tow.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; I thought it would all be covered by the warranty, but i guess the tow was on me, thats what you get for 24K
&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;
Just wanted to add the dealer Kelly's from Billerica MA, took care of the $80 charge. I still think Harley is lame for not covering it, But thanks again to Kelly's

 

+1&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; &nbsp\\;I feel your pain&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; Been there done that or had that done to me&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;
All is well now&nbsp\\;

 

jp96 you should have a free membership in HOG when you bought your 08 I bet you could get your 80.00 back from Hog

I had mine break on me last week, i have an 08 street glide that i received in september of 07.&nbsp\\; The wife and I just started out for a long bike ride when it let go,&nbsp\\; i was about 3 miles from home and was able to make it back home, clutching the heck out of the bike.&nbsp\\; The local harley shop picked the bike up and had part replaced in 1 day free of charge(factory 2 year warranty).&nbsp\\;
