Take a look 4,100 miles 2009 FLHTCU on my Shifter side Front Frame !
I was just changing my oil and saw this CRACK... May be from a Cold Weld !!

Hard to tell with the`white stuff, but it looks like a missed weld. Not a good thing. Hope you were wanting a new bike, cause I think you should have one coming from the factory. They should be thrilled that it did not fall apart completely.

huh yea the corrosion makes me think it may have never been welded, or it has been cracked for a while. either way id say a new frame coming your way. i wouldnt count on a new bike though since MOCO can do a frame swap pretty cheap under warranty. this is not like an insurance claim where there is a bent frame, in your case the ONLY thing needing replaced is a frame. hell they may even try and weld it up who knows.

Ditto. More detail in the photo please.
I'm not sure what I'm looking at in the original photos.
