hello everybody.
This is my first post as the owner of a new Harley. But it is my second one.
I have been riding for 42 years. All makes and models except Vespa. My first HD wasca 1967 XLCH. The fourth one built for that year. Kept it original until I couldn’t kick anymore. Sold it to a gentleman in Tokyo.
Now I just purchased a 2017 FLHTP. Georgia Highway Patrol bike. Had 22 miles on it when I bought it on Aug 2, 2018.
Lot of power. Love the ride.
But now she is down hard.
Bad piston to cyl clearance. Getting both cylinders replaced. 1637 miles.
Anybody else have this or worse?
