Default 2012 Heritage Classic
Hello to all, Very excited to join the HD forum just got my first Harley and am pretty stoked about it. 2012 Harley Heritage Classic. Bought it from Valley Forge harley in PA, great people.
Question before I bring it in to have them check out. Is it possible to bend the bolt that hold the kickstand in place, when I picked up the bike it appeared the kickstand moved with alittle more tension back and forth. When backing it out of my gararge I have a little lip and the kickstand was not upright and it hit this lip. Now it appears it lost some of its tension. Any assistance with this would be a great help.

Frank

All dealers are great people the day you buy it. Then the next time your in they say hello. After that your pretty much useless to them since you will not buy another bike for a while. I get more attention from the girls in motor clothes now a month after buying a new Heritage. And guess what? The girls think I may buy something so they will always be saying hello, these are my *****.
