Oddly, I too had the left turn signal die. The flashers worked. Very weird. Fixed in an hour.

The seat pan is thin and does not support the riders weight which after riding for a while causes the seat to sag like a sway-back horse and creates a gap between the nose of the seat and the bottom of the tank console.

Sounds like I really need to pack a lunch because I'm going to be at the dealership awhile looking over the bike before I take it out the door  :nixweiss:

Seat on mine sags so much with me on it the slot in the seat comes off the bracket that holds it in place.Soon as I make up my mind it'll have a Corbin or Danny Grey solo.Not sure about the new shock system.Good most of the time,but seems very harsh on concrete roads with bad expansion joints.Wish I had my Progressive 440s back to try.Love the 110.

Just wondering... Do all CVO 10's have the new hammock seat?  Is this why so many are having problems with a gap due to lack of support?  :nixweiss:

I'll take a stab at this.  I believe the 2010 SESG seat is based off of the 2009 SERG seat which are unique to the CVO's, although they differ in finish it appears the pan and mounting are the same.  They both have the same gap problem.  That said I do not believe any of the 2010 CVO's come with the "hammock" seat.  The SE Ultra comes with a dual zone heated job which is probably the same as the one the MOCO produces in the p&a catalog.

The lack of support problem comes from the seat pan not being strong enough to prevent from flexing over time and producing a gap.  Many riders have reported on fixes for the problem with the 09 SERG and many threads can be found on that topic as well as making bracket changes to slide the seat forward to reduce or remove the gap between the leading edge of the seat and the gas tank.

The SEUCs are the only CVOs that come with the hammock-style seat.

ha... a lot of people must have sat on the one at the dealer near me... cause it had a 3/4 inch gap already.. the deal had a sign over the gap to cover it... I laughed at it and I told the sales man .. well that is one way to fix the gap....

The dealer just smirked at me when I asked if it would be replaced. It's meaningless to me since I have a Corbin on order, which is in week 4 of production and it is completely stock seat, nothing custom. It looks as if snow will be on the ground before it arrives.  :coolblue:

Ambient air temperature gauge no worky. 1000 miles bike is in for service so no real list of issues so far. Exhaust options being explored but with winter on track I am going to wait until spring.
