Mine has lost money on me. I have 30,000 on an 03 and 20,000 on an 06 that I bought new with PPM. They hate to see me pull up.
Well, I will see how it goes. I willmost likely buy the maintenance. Like I said, I can try all the other HD models every 2500 miles (free rental) and it includes all PM and synthetic oil.
I usually do my own maintenance, but with 4 cars and 3 motorcycles, a tractor as well as small engine tools to maintain,I am overloaded! I want some time to ride!
