[HWYMAN1]

Long story short, had about 100 miles during breakin was riding I95 with cruise about 75mph ( actually taking in for 10k service sans oil) when had decel and then loud noise. Rode bike to dealer (about 5 miles). Had "clunking" noise from front cylinder. Dealer of course not interested in touching engine (also ok by me). Call Wes at cyclerama and get bike back down to them. Tear both cylinders apart. Front piston "seized". This was a new forged piston, and Wes says never had seen this happen. Got redone. Wes rode it for a little over 400 miles to do break in and dyno tune. Things happen but frustrating. But Wes never balked about fixing it and making it right. Runs like a champ! ( now got to fix legend air ride switch that got damaged during trailering back-always something!)  So have finally have my "stealth" 103 and hope everything continues to hold up. john

John,

Glad to hear it runs good and that it puts a smile on your face when riding it that is what is all about anyhow.   Mind sharing what the set back was?   Will you be at Bikeweek in Daytona this year?   Get the scanner working already
