Anybody have a picture of this fix?
Can’t see much, will try in better light, but just a vent hose at the inside rear of the primary.

So they drill a hole in the case and stick that on there?

Sure hope that's a check valve/filter on the end.

What if the simple fix was to put the kick stand on the right side of the bike?  :jester:

Funny, but that was the suggestion I made to our service manager exactly one month ago!
He didn’t get the humor in it.

If they don't want to relocate the jiffy stand, then put the clutch on the right side of the engine.  See if the primary oil then "migrates" to the transmission.   ;)

Before I die I'd love to see Harley just once own up to a problem they created without all the "never heard of that before" BS, then the "it's within our tolerance" BS, and so on.  Being honest and forthright isn't their strong suit, but they really should try it.  Then they should fix the problem they created with their design changes without jerking customers around for years and feeding them BS.

You are more likely to be struck by lightning than that happening.

Yeah, or the front fork issue BMW had on the GSA bikes.  At least BMW stepped up, recalled the bikes and engineered a fix that works.

BMW corrected the issue within one model year ( 2012 ) and properly repaired many that failed.

I’ll bet they didn’t tell their customers “it’s within specs” and “they all do that”
