I knew wheels were coming from Australia for a while.  Never knew any were coming from Italy. 

Not sure where rotors are coming from for the 2023.5 CVO but they rust fast.  First one was rusted bad by the one year mark.  New ones showing rust after 3 week.

I have  never seen rust on any of my bikes rotors before.

Well, that is interesting on the Heritage.   Not surprised the 19 CVO wheel is from China

My front wheel on my 2017 CVO limited was made in Australia, but I never took a picture of it.
That was the one that was replaced under warranty due to improper machining on the rotor mounts.

Man that sucks!
Like others suggest, the warranty period is there for exactly this scenario. The challenge is finding a dealer with ethics and concern for the customer. The number of times I have been told “they all do that” by the people that are supposed to be fixing things drives me crazy.
If your dealer doesn’t make it right, or tries to deflect their responsibility, call the next closest dealer until you speak to someone who gives a damn. Please keep us posted!

I just purchased a new Harley Road glide CVO. I had a Harley  glide standard before this one. With only 160 miles on it I received an engine light warning. There are two diagnostic code errors. The first one.P06930 problem with the   Fan control circuit and   B11600 Battery mgmt system. I did notice I  a great amount of heat  from the engine doing a short ride. Has anyone else experienced this issue?  I put up with getting frequent diagnostic error codes with my 2024 road glide however I am not going to do the same with this bike.

CVO front
 Quite a weight difference from 2000 to 2019!

Changed the front tire on my 2019 CVO limited last Thursday, wheel made in China.
Changed the front tire on my 2000 Heritage softail today, wheel made in Italy.

 

For chits and giggles I just grabbed a caliper and measured an old one here.  Exactly the same as your old one. 

New one is probably some damned counterfeit part.  There is a surprising amount of that crap out there anymore.

Perhaps the throwing of check engine codes is right of passage on these new SkylineOS bikes?
There’s a lot of electronics on ‘em, and “check engine” seems to be one of standard SkylineOS screen features.

Or like some cars, it's way to keep you coming in to be hundred and thousand (formerly nickle'd and dime'd) away.

Wow, that is a very good article and an interesting read.  It explains some of what has been going on.
