Hi John
I too have had similar problems...I have the same bike as yourself and took delivery March 07 but I'm on my THIRD repairafter approx 6000 miles.....this time however i am waiting for replacement cylinder(s).....the problem stems from the fact that the rear cyinder overheats... the cylinder then warps and then gaskets keep blowing all the time. Ask your dealer to look into replacing the warped cylinder......My dealer tells me I should not be riding in hot countrys and even more important...don't ride in parades in hot weather.......but its what we do !!!
PS....We don't get too much hot weatherin Scotland
All the best...Al Bud
And I thought it was just the American Harley dealers who were full of chit. Looks like it's a world-wide epidemic!
Gotta love 'em; don't ride in the heat, don't ride in the rain (may screw up the electrical stuff), don't ride over 75 mph (might wobble), etc., etc. It looks like what I've always suspected is actually true, H-D designs these things to just sit in the garage and look pretty. Probably should have a decal on the top of the tank: "Caution, actually riding this motorcycle may result in mechanical or electrical failure. Harley-Davidson accepts no responsibility for failures due to actual use of our products."
