I have a 2010 Limited with 5,000 miles on it. The trans has leaked...fixed that. Temp. guage quit...f*#k that one. Chrome piece fell off...glad it was small one...CD player skips...must use Ipod...left rear shock leaks oil all over muffler and wooden floor...cleaned it up so far....headpipe from FuelMoto won't fit....don't know what the hell that is...should have gutted OE pipe....hate the loud noise during start up...dealer says normal will not replace with SE compensator...I think it's time to think of something else to buy. I know use your warranty...alot of money for sheeeet to keep happening. Jr. sorry...just got to vent today!
Sorry you are going thru that. Very frustrating. Sounds like you got one of those rare ones that just don't have the quality we expect from the MOCO these days.
How often does this happen? If it's more than once in 10,000, Harley has a problem.
I'm still liking my 06 Ultra, my 2010 Trike sucks when I think about all the **** I had to straighten out just so it would work right. I've ridden the newer stuff and I'm not impressed so I'm sticking with what I have.

Dont feel bad, ive had 2 new street glides in 4 months and both have issues! The newest one is leaking oil from the inner primary with only 180 miles on it!
I must have been one lucky SOB when i first got my Harley i was kinda worried because i bought a rental bike. i figured it would be beaten up from people riding it like they stole it. but to tell you the truth, i have had nothing but good times on that scooter. it has never broken down on me and all the chrome bolted on with very little to no issues. i think of getting a new scooter every now and then, but when i look at everything i have down to my scooter, i think i have a better scooter than a CVO... i was really happy i got my 08 Ultra. only thing i wish i had were ABS and the wider tire... but for a 110.00 a month bike payment, i can live without it...
