I'm sure you're just being facetious since all the problems mentioned have either been design problems or parts problems. I don't think Moco's engineers and suppliers are beneficiaries of their labor contract

By the way, Fogo De Chao restaurant in Kansas City is awesome.

So is the Fogo De Chao in Dallas, TX

List of issues with my 2012 Road Glide Ultra
- It seems to go faster than my 09 FLSTC
- The paint color attacts too much attention
- I can't hear the engine as much cause the radio can go quite loud
- I don't feel as much wind with the fairing and lowers
- The weather hasn't been as nice since I got it
- I have to buy all new accessories for it

2012 FLHTK
1. heated grips replaced
2. voltage regulator failed
3. gas tank cover adjusted
4. throttle body plug loose

I am not complaining, just passing forward what has went wrong with mine. It has been a bit of a headache but I think it is running right now. My 2010 had a few issues in the beginning then ran like a champ. I am hopeful this one does the same.
