Since there is such interest in the chrome peeling problem on the SEEG area, I thought that maybe it was more widespread than just our bikes...

Any other chrome problems out there on CVOs?

[Road_Hog]

No problems here after a year and a half!

I've had my 02 SE Road King for over two years and no chrome problems yet.  The only real problem I've had is that when I first bought the bike the electrical lead to the front injector kept breaking, making the bike run on one cylinder.  Finally after hauling the bike to the dealer four times, they figured out the wire was too short causing it to be pulled on when the engine bounced around at idle.

Oh yeah chrome is peeling from my 01 fltrsei2 wheels, I noticed it the begining of last year, so its been a while. I will go back to painted rims when i come across a pair cheap. They really suck

Had problem when my 04 SE Electra Glide was delivered jan.  Crome peeling off the primary case.  Was replaced before I picked bike.  Later saw front wheel was peeling .  dealer replaced,  Note replaced Primary had stripped screw at 200 mile oil change, [smiley=nixweiss.gif] so they replaced again.

Thanks for the info!

Was drying the rear wheel on my 04seeg & wiped  the chrome off an area about an inch by a foot . Haven't seen the dealer yet, waiting for the rain to stop.

My replacement wheels are at the Dealer...I have a 2:00 Thursday appointment to get them installed.

I just need to decide if I want the Detonator sprocket!

Chrome peeling on front wheel and right passenger floor board.  Dealer replacing same (when they get here). 2004 SEEG.

Bill, what's to decide? [smiley=nixweiss.gif]

[WFP]

True...but seriously, if these peel also, I want a different style wheel...maybe the ones from the '03SERK so they match my SED.

The other question will be whether the dealer even has one on hand...they did not 2 weeks ago.

Bill, cool, just giving you a hard time,[smiley=xyxthumbs.gif] but doesn't the '03 SED have detonators? [smiley=confused5.gif]

[110tHunDer]

Nevermind, I just looked at photos of your bike on the site here.  I guess I was thinking of the '04s.  Those slotted chrome jobbies you have on your SED would look GREAT on the SEEG.  I was going to put those on my '02 EG Classic before deciding to get the SEEG.  Good luck with whatever you decide on the sprocket, but if you get it, just remember:  [smiley=worthless.gif]

Will do...it would look nice with some new chrome shocks also...

...and they say women can shop...just give a guy a Harley (stock or CVO) and a credit card and let the shopping begin!

[flhrsei2_gret's_is for sale]

YES!!!!
West Bend, WI HD Dealership worked on my bike several times.

It was in the shop for several reasons in 2003... the big one included a major rebuild of new HD parts... the parts are just about a year old.

The chrome is peeling off of the regulator, and  I have peeling and rusting on a SE pipe.

The tires, wheels were replaced last year - and the chrome is tarnished.

Cleansers are not at fault for this, nor is improper storage of bike at fault for this.
