Hi all, I'm trying to collect evidence of the stitching on the se6 seat coming apart as mine has started to do after only 8500 miles but unfortunately its warranty expired 4 months ago and the dealer reckons I've no chance of a warranty fix, he has taken photo's and will submit a claim. I've seen a few seats from the se6 which have had the same problem and the more evidence I can muster then the more clout I'll have when the claim gets escalated to the moco Any help/info will be greatly appreciated. All the best, Rod.

It started coming apart in my SEUC4 and SEUC5 shortly before my warranty expired. I got both seats replaced under warranty.
-
ine did the same just out of warranty ..dealer wouldnt even try to submit a claim not surprised not a good service dept around here
-
50,000 on my SE6 and no problem.

No prob yet on my 11.5 at 15,000 miles but I've heard of this issue before. Extended warranty is making out like a bandit since I can't ride like I want to.

My stitching is falling apart on my cuse 6 seat also >:( about 12k

thanks for the replies. still awaiting a response but not holding out much hope.

Rather than just wait on a dealership employee to maybe call the Harley rep and ask him to make a goodwill adjustment on an out-of-warranty defect, I'd suggest you guys place a call directly to Harley customer service. I can't begin to count all the times I've heard dealership people claim they were going to contact the "factory" to find out about coverage, or to get help figuring out a problem, and promise they would then get back to the customer, only to never do any of the above. Some places are very good about going to bat for their customers on this sort of thing, but all too many are not. Don't assume your dealership is one of the good ones.
