I read the article someplace, recently, but can't remember where. Not sure why MFG didn't tell you where the article came from. I'll check through some magazines when I get home. Seems like it might have been Motorcycle Consumer News or American Rider Magazine.

As always, one man's opinion and subject to the objections of others...

Think it's an onset of alzheimers.

When I was looking at new bikes I made choice to find a low mileage carb bike that wouldn't have to bow to the EPA gods so much. Luckily I found my FXDWG3 with only 4400 miles . And hopefully they won't mandate any retroactive changes .. so far anyway

That's why it's good to give the credit of the article at the time of post.
