I had the regulator recall & front tire issue. I believe the regulator recall also affected some 2011 models. But i still love my '12. wouldnt change it for anything. You will always have little things here and there and they corrected them...so, carry on.

2012 FLHRC - 10K+ miles only issue was the regulator recall. In and out on warranty replacement for that in <1 hr. Other than that - flawless.

I gotta ask, how can you have any factory warranty left with 32k on the meter? I thought they were only good for 1 year and/or 12k miles.

Anyway, just to make sure the 12s aren't the only ones with claims, my 13 has an issue - the cruise stopped working and the check engine light keeps coming on & off. It goes in next week. I completely understand that things happen, it's no big deal, etc., but it's really annoying to have to bring it in.

2012 (bought end of July '11) CVO Street Glide 9,000 miles
(I had cancer last year, so no riding)

Only issue was the front tire cracking
(I've had tires cracking on my 2009 way worse, but this was covered under warranty).

No other warranty claims.

The only thing I think that was changed in 2012 was the year on the registration. The only issue was the brake recall we all had. I have two 2012 bikes and not a single issue with either.

U mean I bought a 12RK thinkin this will be the bike for the rest of my life...and you tell me it problematic?

Only 5k on mine, don't get to ride her much bit they are trouble free. Did the regulator recal before there was an issue.

Tire issues...if I am not mistaken that's been a dunlop problem for quite some time.
