I have a 2007 springer cvo, red. Love it but it leaked 6 times after HD doing gaskets, etc at 5k miles. They finally gave me a new 09 motor (used my original chrome though), but after 500 miles, it's fine. Problem is I have V&H big radius pipes, it it back fired like crazy. They won't dyno it since it was not done at dealer....don't look a gift horse.........
Taking mine into the dealers tomorrow to change the breakin oil and then home to pack for the California CVO GTG in

Solvang next week. Noticed mine runs a little hotter than the old engine. Have 600 miles on it now and the California trip

should show any problems as I run 85 to 90 MPH in the desert.

Good Luck with yours also. :pineapple:

OK!!! This is how they should all work!

New engine is strong and not a oil weep/leak anywhere.

Picture is VANAMAL's yellow beautiful ride and my Springer in Solvang California

The day before the GTG.

I need to get more miles on mine!    :2vrolijk_21:

so far, it's running great...... but it's going to run great....it's a new motor..:coolblue:
miles will tell, my old motor was great for the first 5000 miles, then it started leaking.

I'm not celebrating until I see it get past 5500 miles..... until then :drink:

Put 2,500 miles on the new engine. Rode to California, met with the Solvang group, then came home Sunday.

Runs real strong and not using or weeping oil. Looks like a keeper!

As you can see, not much traffic on these Arizona roads. hahaha
