Even though none of the 2020 bikes excite me....I am tired of the issues my bike has been having for the last two seasons.
Most recently it went in on Aug 13 because the compensator was going for the 4th time.....waited over a month for a primary drive chain as they wanted to replace it and the tensioner as they felt it was the root cause. When they got it together they heard other noises...possible from top end or cam chest.....I suspect theses are the noises I have been telling them about for years (before and after the rebuild) and they say are normal. So...they are tearing into it again.
I guess my season ended in August!....and had a two week Okanogan vacation in the Jeep instead of on the bikes.
At another dealer......FLHTKSE blue...reduced price of $49,999cdn......with my FLKXSE3 with 70,000km in trade.....$33,000cdn out the door. That works out to about $20535cdn trade value for my bike. Because it has ESP...they should be giving me a value based on it being in good mechanical condition....right?
Then there is the Indian dealer .............they really seem to like it when people wear FXRG on Indians....hahaha
50km: comp
60km: comp and total engine(did not get a straight answer why not a new engine) and trans rebuild
65km: comp and re-ring and hone due to burning oil
70km: comp, tensioner, chain......and noises that they finally hear
They won't allow anything but stock parts to be installed...so this is going to continue to be a recurring issue.
A new Harley.....I'm pretty much held hostage by there being only one dealer on the Island (also only one Indian dealer).....and the new issues that my local dealer still has their head in the sand about.
