Did Harley finally get it right?
I have been on here a couple of years and have noticed that this year there are very few complaints about the 09's. In years past there were many. Have they finally figured it out after three years or have they sold fewer bikes or have people quit whining or all of the above. T.

About the only real complaint is some vibration issues the seem to come from the exhaust cross over pipe, and that is ready fixed by adjusting the clamps from hitting something. Travels up into everything is what I have heard.

I was thinking the same thing, no consistent complaints this year or post for a liquid cooled engine. My only comment on the 09s is the color choices for the SG. I am glad they found the vibration problem. It wasn't all that big a deal to me, but it has been noticeable on all the 09s I test rode.

Where there is a will there is a way.You can always find something to complain about nothing is perfect, its a matter of being satisfied with what you have. In reality i dont think anything is wrong just that some like to make improvements merited or unmerited.Remember we make our bikes to our liking making them ours, different from others.As of yet i havent found anything to complain about so i'm happy just making my bike to my liking.I'm an ethusiast not a perfectionist.

The only complaint I have is pinging at low rpms when the motor gets hot in traffic. Fuel Moto's power package should sort that for me.
