Looking for comments on 110 issuses
« on: October 07, 2008, 05:40:09 PM »

Ok - Yes it's a different message board, but American Iron is looking for comments on issues with your 110 (providing you had some ;) ). Here is the link in the event you would like to add something

Think I recall at least one of our members taking the time to try and convey the 110 issues to AIM and I believe the response was less than enthusiastic. Anyone here (where's the d00derator) recall who that was??

I think it would be easier to invite Mr. Kanter over. The amount of data available on this fine site regarding the 110's would fill several issues of the magazine to begin with, and then some.

I doubt this information will lead to help us any and my hurt us more.

Writing an article condemning the 110 will surely have negative affects on our bikes resale ability whether it is true or not.

The details often get lost and the sound byte is "110 awful choice"

Maybe HD is using AIM to do Market Research for them without telling anyone?

110 = AWFUL CHOICE I'd say that pretty much covers it.

I'm with you.  I own one too.  After all, it's just nuts and bolts.

Great find Howie.  I remember seeing that now (almost a year ago)

Opinions are like well some part of the human anatomy. Just because there are a few issues with the 110 doesn't make it an awful choice. I mean come on the largest most powerful engine ever offered from the MOCO an awful choice- I THINK NOT.

I think that it's a real good basis but we need to finish the job of the MoCo...   :(

Great bike with many potential !

We need to find it !  ;)

I have to disagree also with the "110 being an awful choice" statement. I really enjoy my bike and even though the engine is stock (Air, Motor, ECM, Exhaust) I find it to have great smooth power. Granted there are "bugs" with the design of the motor, but I honestly believe the MoCo will step up to address it better than just their Product Program. Yes it's frustrating that it seems to take so long and/or looks to be denied, but this may be case where views from the outside (being us) need to be expressed for those at the MoCo to recognize the problem. Well at least I hope so.
