I agree ! The boys at DK Customs would be the people for this. Great quality parts from them and they do their homework before bringing something out. They put all their parts though their paces before the public sees them. This is just the kind of company the motorcycling community needs . Plus his wife takes good pictures !

Glad to know your problem is solved. I'll never have a problem with the water pump because I refuse to switch from air cooled to liquid cooled, and that's why I'll keep my 2013. More parts means more potential problems, more weight and at the end of the day, the Rushmore liquid cooled engine doesn't run any cooler than my air cooled 103". I rode both and couldn't tell a difference.
To each his own.
Again, glad to know your problem was taken care of quickly.

Now have to see if the 14’s had a recall and hope maybe for partial reimbursement for this solid gold water pump,!
Now for the good part. The pumps fails because soldered connection on the board lose contact. They say can't be fixed . Well that is not true. They get pissed here if you link to another sight but another has shown step by step how to fix one.

There is a thread on this HD Forums in the Rushmore Forum with pics and all for the possible fix of the pump problems. I don't think they get ill if you post a link to another forum on THIS site. However, I have been wrong before and got my hand slapped, but it was a forum not on this HD Forums site.
