So at 64 000 KM/40 000 M. I needed almost every gasket replaced. Ish. I am suspecting that when the motor got really hot one of the gaskets would expand and it would leak. Cooled down and it would stop. This is why they changed so many. They could not pin point which one.

No wonder nobody wanted to ride behind me due to the smell of oil....or they could not keep up. ;D

Thank you God for extended warranty. I am now convinced that I have a Friday bike. Poor workmanship and cheap parts.

After all of the trouble I have had in the last 2 years I still love it. I rode her home yesterday and was smiling the whole way...ish....lol.

I hope so. We will see. I guess you can say I got all the bugs out by now.

It was +4 and sunny. Just above 32 for you. Have you been out yet?

An update.

A 4th head unit went in today. I also replaced the cruise control switch twice and today the Throttle Sensor Assembly.

I know there is more but ish......

Am I the only one or is everyone else just fixing and not saying anything. :nixweiss:

+36,600 on my twin to your scooter.  Issues: amp, front wheel replaced due to bad plating, compensator replaced.  Compared to Lexi (08 SERK) this has been very reliable!

Codes PD134, P1510 & P2138 came up again. To make a long story short. The one wire (grey) for the Throttle Control, when it left York, P.A. was not placed with the rest of the wires under the bat wing by the steering head. So every time I would make a turn it would kink the wire. The wire broke inside (copper) but not on the outside.

Good find/fix but could have been avoided if the person putting the bike together was paying attention.

Yes....my bike was built on a Monday.

Mano,

That problem has been an issue for the last decade. On my '01 ultra the speedo sensor wire broke at the exact same location. Quite a few other bikes too. The MoCo allegedly fixed that issue with better wire.

Man, Mano! I really hope you get past all of these problems. It sucks having to have your bike in for service like that all the time. At least you have the ESP!

I have been very lucky... The Honey Badger must have been built on a Wednesday.

I did replace the VSS about a year ago, after my speedo kept dropping to zero - taking the cruise control and radio AVC with it - even after cleaning the VSS. I did it on my own ($55 for a new VSS) because I didn't want any warranty service records in the system. Works fine ever since.

I also had to torque those two small bolts on top of the oil filter mount, where the lines go to the oil cooler. Gave them another 1/8 or so turn because that little cover was leaking oil at the gasket and it was running out onto the cam chest cover. That stopped it.

Good luck with all of this chit...

Had the same seal go out on my 07 at 2,000 miles
No problems after that, traded it with 60,000 miles on it.
But they did find it the first time I took it in.
