I'd be pretty pissed if I dropped 30K large on one of these bikes & it pissed all over my garage floor! Hope that all of you victims ie. Guinea Pigs get your issues resolved over this debacle!

I wish I could! But since my bike is an 07 they would most likely tell me to STFU! If I had just bought a 2014 liquid cooled bike and it took a leak you bet I'd be making some phone calls...I would bug the pi$$ out of them (MOCO) until they made me happy...

Day 6:
Dealer just called and said my bike is fixed. He said all of my radio issues will be addressed in future firmware updates. He did say MoCo is aware of them. He mentioned too a problem with iphone 5 and the 7.0 update which I have. Anyway, I'm really not worried about the Radio glitches per se. I am worried about the coolant exploading/leaking/puking, etc.
To "fix" my bike's coolant puke problem. All they did was the same thing they did last Friday night on Day 1. They waited for the bike to fully cool. Opened the radiator cap. Ran the bike for 5 minutes with the cap off. Addded the correct amount of coolant took it for a "long" (not sure how long) test ride. Turned off bike let cool down. Did that whole process again and they say no issues.
I asked if they performed the technical bulletin TT430 or whatever it is, and he said no, that they didn't have to do any of that. He said they may have to in the future, but didn't need to now.
I'll pick her up tonight, take her for a ride, and report back later, but I'm not so sure what they did fixed anything. I also wonder why it took them all day Monday, Tueasday, and half the day today to do such a small proceedure? Anyway, I fear the saga continues....

Hey dinosaur bike man thanks for the kind words, but just so you know not all of us guinea pigs are pissed after dropping our 30k large. In fact every time I fly past a dinosaur bike with my high powered 103 motor with my infotainment center blaring, and my head not being beat up from the wind, I get a big smile on my face.
