Just turned over 6000 miles and no issues!   
Went to Big Sucker A/C, V&H Tru Duals with stock mufflers, and V&H Fuelpak at 2000 miles.  Engine runs much cooler.

No major problems with almost 5000 miles. I ride every sunny day and sometimes in the rain, and once in snow by accident. My woman says I like the bike more then her, sometimes she right. I don't care if it breaks all the time I still enjoy it every time I sit on it.

...I don't care if it breaks all the time I still enjoy it every time I sit on it.

I'm in total agreement here!

Road King:

5200 miles

Rinehart 2-1, K&N af, sert...tuned to 13.5ish afr.  Beat it like a redheaded step child...

Just switched out synlube for redline trans, primary and Mobil V for crank...
Lost 5-10 degrees in op temp to 220 ish(if the pos hd temp dipstick thing is accurate).

Fuse box had some loose backplane issued early on, self fixed.

Took delivery August 07.

I fully expect the crank to walk.

Delivery August 06, sorry.

Delivered March 2008- Stage 1, Rinehart True Duals and PCIII before delivery-then PCIII removed at 700 miles due to crap bottom end...awaiting a Super SERT to give the Rineharts something to exhaust. Coming up on 1700 miles.

Took delivery Jan 07, just under 8,000 miles with no problems so far.  I changed out the pipes to SE slip ons last august without any other mods.  I added Night Rider IED's last week and it runs cooler and a little bit faster now.  According to the package, the AFR should now be 14.2.  I noticed chrome flaking from right rear end cap over the weekend.  I attributed it to heat since that side gets about 75% of the flow and I had ridden it for 3,000 miles before IED installation.  I can easily change it.

Took delivery Nov 06...one head gasket replacement, for very minor leak (just enough of a "stain" on the fin to know it was leaking).  6K mileage, only had to replace the tour pak (leather wearing through on edge) one-time "good faith" replacement by the MoCo.  Other then that, the Jester has been a dream machine.  I love it, and I love everytime I get on it and ride it.  See my signature below for the limited mods I've done.  One of the best mods I added was the IDS pulley.  That really smooths things out.  Came OEM on my SG.  Won't have another bike without it.

Early 07 model. 6,000 miles and no problems. I did a power commander and eliminated the cat's in the stock mufflers.  (knock on wood)

[JCZ]

This poll has proven to be even more interesting than I expected.  In less than twenty hours there are 21 people that have 5,000 or more miles that have not had major issues.  So, there are a few out there that haven't had major issues.

[TN]

I'm afraid to say too much for fear of jinxing myself.

Right at 10K miles.  But so far so good.  So far.

V-rod at the ready, pending the apparently inevitable.

i hope you have found the trailer thread......it's a small world, you never know huh.

sorry for the thread jack.

Heya TN - I'd share the story but I don't think anybody would believe how small the world can be!  I sure was glad you stopped, the world's a better place with guys like you riding down the backroads of it.

You're gonna love the V-Rod, whichever one you pick.  I do love the darkness of the DX, but I sure wouldn't blame ya for picking up one of those gorgeous SE's.

yeah, it is a small world

Just got my SEUC3 back from 1K service and all is well. Can't get on the Dyno until June 18 which means also the SuperTrapp SE slip-ons, Super Tuner, SE Stage 1 a/c will go on at the same time, hopefully. Dealer tells me the stock SEUC3 filter cover will not fit over Stage 1 filter so that's another $$$ if true. It's great engineering to pay top dollar for a SEUC3, emphasis on SE, and the SE cover won't fit over the SE filter. Also the cover is on moco back order. Question- has there been any difference in the number of 110 issues for people that dyno'd the bike before breakin as opposed to after?

[Twistedrider]

I have the SE a/c and the stock cover fits fine.
