I got my bike back a couple days ago. I checked the service work and they replaced the lifters, SE 255 cam, cam bearings, chain tensioner, oil pump, fuel injectors, gaskets oil etc. $3300. but good thing I had the 2 year extended warranty. I feel te Stealershp knew what they were doing when they sold me the bike, and the previous owne might also know it was going bad. But I swear i did  check of the bike after going on test ride and there were no issues. I do most of the maintenance and service on my bikes but that would have been a major job that is beyond my knowledge. Now I can start to add my personalization starting with slip ons, I can't tell what brand they are but they don't sound as good as my CFRS I had on my traded in 09 SG

That's good news to hear.  Did they flush out the whole engine?  Anytime something grenades, there is a lot of metal particles being spread around the engine. 

Hi, 2003 Road King CVO 100,000 mi slight ticking at first, then within a minute much louder , shut it down, no metal in the cam case, I had installed new Feuling hydraulic tensioners already ,any ideas ??

Gawdammit Pete.  Now I'll never be able to unsee that or think of Debby Harry the same way ever again.  Knew there was a reason we overthrew the British...

.

They pushed for extended warranty because they make MONEY off the sale and repairs done under the warranty. Nothing in his orignal posting to indicate the dealership did anything wrong but everyone here instantly decides that a known problem was the dealerships fault.

I traded my 09 in, a dealer employee bought It the same day. The front lifter failed the next week. How was that anyone's fault?

... and we already lost Meatloaf back in '22   

Long live Bacon.
