'07 SERK console?
« on: January 02, 2007, 07:28:10 PM »
Is this gap between the console and seat normal?

If no, I'm guessing I can have the dealership fix it under warranty.

pic = rear gap.

I’m unsure exactly what the second picture is of but the first one is definitely excessive, I’ve never noticed any gap in mine but I will examine it closer tomorrow.

When my dealer received the first CVO and it was a SERK, I made some pics.
On this, we see a gap but not so important than your.

Look the seat installation !

Concerning the gap near the tank, it was same !

Information : this bike was just unpackaged and not prepared by the dealer.

Dereck,
Definitely need to take the seat off and see if the front tab is inserted correctly. I would do this before taking it back to dealer just for my own piece of mind. Could end up being an easy fix w/o risking dealer/tech damaging something else while it's there. [smiley=nervous.gif]

Dereck,

I definatly don't have that gap between the seat and the console.  I will go home tonight and check for any gap around the front of the tank.

I agree with everyone else here.  It looks like the seat is mounted correctly.

Keep us posted.

I don't think it's a seat problem.  Took it off and re-mounted it.  Front post goes in the slot and the rear bracket lines up with the bolt, doesn't get much simpler than that.  I'll take it by the dealership and see if they can move the console back or something.

By the way, I was a little concerned by how easy it was to remove the saddlebags.  Probably need to invest in the saddle bag locks.

Looks exactly like my 07 RG did before I put the Corbin on it. Don't know what's up. Last year it was paint, maybe this year it's seats. Seems like every year the MoCo has something they eff up but good. I blame the bean counters. I am sure they bid out contracts for various parts every year or two at most and probably go with the low bidder. IMO

Gregg, that second picture is the rubber "flap" that hangs down off the bottom front of the dash in front of the tank.  If the dash were rearward as far as it should be that rubber flap would be all but touching the tank.  So the whole dash is toward the front of the bike too far.

Don,
      The dash screws to tabs on the gas tank which do not have any fore/aft adjustment. If everyone with an 07 SERK is saying theirs is ok, then this one could be a real ass pain. Seems like you're theory is right, but for it to be off like that, the whole console would have to be off which could mean the mounting tabs are welded to the gas tank out of whack. The fix for this might well be a new gas tank.

I was wondering about exactly the same thing Brian.  Just because it looks like it is too far forward doesn't mean there's anything that's easily done about it.  

The captured nut down at the bottom has some up and down slop. But up at the top it is where it is.  Hope we're just seeing it wrong.  But I was afraid too that this might actually be something of an ugly problem.
