You do deserve a prize, you probably put a smile on all those who decided to wait until all the kinks are Ironed out.

With the engine no longer having air cooled heads I am concerned about any damage it could have caused. Im just glad it didnt dump all of that earlier in the day while I was leaned into a corner. Coolant on the back wheel in a corner wouldnt be fun.
Im pretty bummed right now. Never fun dropping $30k on a bike and having something like this happen within 300 miles.

That would drive me crazy, poor some water in it and fire it up. Should be obvious.

The bad thing is they have probably not been trained to work on them yet. I guess they train on yours.

Know how you feel. Brought my new 2014 Ultra home last weekend and it dumped all the FUEL!! They came and picked it up on a Saturday night, had it fixed first thing Monday morning.

Sorry about your problem. They have been making the Vrod for what 10 years now.

Looks like they decided to use the cheap clamps that you can't tighten... NOT GOOD!
