Glad you didn't get shot.  Too many weren't so lucky.

I am still surprised by how many insensitive people think its ok to say something mean or ignorant, but don't think its ok to be called out on it or have a mean or ignorant reply sent back.

Funny how that works.

I have to agree with you. but that is what males the world go round!!!!

Bike has bee fixed but I don't know yet if there is a bill or not. I know the Dealer was going to call the MOCO again to see if something could be done. If not it will be ESP!!!! It is still a shame that you have to fight to get warranty work done!!!!

My comments were more in line with after 4CVO's you should be used to problems with Harleys...

And of course there is this: "
Now the truth be known. When I got back off of my trip I was more interested in getting back to Delaware and see my girl friend and my Dog and completely forgot about the repairs to the bike."

DC fireman I salute you for your hard work!!! your cvo purchases provided someone with a good paying job! it is a shame the way you were treated by moco! most problems like this are noted in the computer and can be taken care of at a later date. congrats on a beach house and the pending retirement!! :2vrolijk_21: :2vrolijk_21: maybe, a ride over to the beach house on a new :indian_chief: will help the sour taste moco left!!

I understand. I think everyone took your comment out of context. Now truth be know I have had NO problems with my CVO's till the 12 and they were minor and they were quality control problems. Now the 14 CVO Limited has some issues along with recalls. I will get it all taken care of with one trip to the Dealer. This winter the motor comes off the frame to be built bullet proof!! Soooo tomorrow I am going to the Dealer and see what the outcome is on the bike in question!!!!

A few days before the warranty goes away, you were fortunate enough to get a rep to essentially give you a "complete your vacation" pass.
You waited nearly a year to try to redeem this 'courtesy pass' and you get incensed because it wasn't "open-ended" in term.
It is my opinion that you are being absurd in this regard.

If this hadn't been a previously not just occurring but recurring problem I'd completely agree.  It had been though.  That it was a recurring warranty issue is what alters the circumstances.

If I had been told THERE WAS A TIME FRAME then it would have been taken care. The bike is parked but not at my PRIMARY RESIDENCE and in another STATE!!!! This was not the first time that this had happened either. As Twolane said it was a RECURRING PROBLEM. When I got home the bike got no miles till it was taken to the dealer. They should have taken care of it!!!!

Face it Mike, good company relations nor expectations nor any sense of (earned nor unearned) loyalty notwithstanding you were wrong.  You know this because, of course, you've read it (here) on the Internet.  So it must be true.  Not only wrong but asinine, inane, stupid, flatulent, obtuse, narcissistic, self-entitled, parasitic and downright f(^)%(*g greedy.  Truth be told you should be laid between two opposite direction riding Honda Shadows that each have high test fishing line tied around each of your testicles for ever suggesting the idea that a failure that had repeatedly presented and was unrepaired during warranty might have some later redress.  You sniveling asshole.    :huepfenlol2:

Perhaps the most entertaining thread of 2015 so far?  Buncha stupid comments that are funny and a dose of wit and sarcasm that's even funnier.  :2vrolijk_21:

Well it started out as a rant. But now it is kinda funny. Even funnier, as much hell as I have raised over this, I have not even checked on the bike to see what the outcome was or is!!!!

I re-read the original post with all the CapsLock screaming that "I'll never buy another" despite apparently many years and many bikes without any trouble. But now, after one minor glitch that isn't even a towing event, you flop on the floor kicking your feet and screaming like a toddler in a pity fit.
They gave you a reprieve from the warranty clock to save your trip and you didn't give a crap about it when you got back, just hopped a plane and flew off to your other place. It was a choice you made because it wasn't important at that time (according to you). You had to know that you were electing to blow it off at that time.
So now, after nearly a year, you assume that the moco rep gave you a pass good for perpetuity(?)
You say that since it was a repeated issue within the warranty period that they should fix it if it ever happens again. Really? Like, forever?
You say that since you were not using the bike or even in the same residence, that somehow Harley's clock should stand still...because, well, you weren't there, so the calendar shouldn't count..somehow. BTW: that's never ever worked for me; good luck with that claim.
Have you told them that they have to extend your original warranty for the twenty months that you weren't there with the bike over the last couple of years? I mean that would fix everything, wouldn't it?
The thread loses its humor due to pettiness.
