It is absolutely insane for that to be the practice with something as expensive as lifters. My current set has over 140,000 on them. Couldn't imagine the cost of buying lifters every time I needed an oil change. One of the reasons I am not a fan of the 110".

My 09 CVO RG had lifter failure at 47K miles, a week after I traded it in.  My 15 CVO RGU had lifter failure at 44K miles on the day after 2 year warranty expired.  H-D replaced the motor.  The 110 is prone to lifter failure.  I have two friends that have experienced it also.

I know of two M8's with lifter failure, one stock and mine which was built and had 46K on the build.
