vzts4q,

Thanks for the recommendations. I'll mention them to my mechanic.

OK... it's been a while, but that's for good reason. H-D replaced the rocker-boxes (top/spacer/bottom) and my mechanic followed all his previous steps as a precautionary measure. Thus far, about 1,500 miles have been put on the new boxes and all seems fine (1,900 total miles on the new motor). And I've been running her hard at times, too. Bike has been a real pleasure to ride. Now, I just need the rain to slack off a bit.

Glad they stood behind it, and you got her fixed. Can't really ask for more than that.
