Sure do Don!!!! At the factory and I took my 2002 Fireman's Ultra that day.  I left there and went to Zippers that day. I believe I had a problem with the Thundermax on Ole  Punkin. Good time for sure!!!

And it was a COLD ride in for you over the mountain that morning.  I remember the ride up from Maggie Valley for Bill and I the day before.  Whole day in the 30s and low 40s and we froze our nuts off.  The bikes loved it.  Our nuts did not.  Damn that was a fun trip that year.

I have stayed out of this discussion for a reason, but now I enter it with a new observation.
I can't believe anyone really thinks the Motor Company gives a good chit about their customers.
In the years I have been on this thread I have seen complaints on just about everything CVO and Harley related problems. I have been asked by a HD factory representative what it would take for me to buy a new CVO. ( This happened in MV a few years ago. ) My main answer was when the MOCO starts to care about their customers and not just the $$$$. I still have my 1999 Road Glide and have no plans to get rid of it. NO WARRANTY and happy.
Now as far as the subject of Dawgs problem, they did not put a time limit on it and in South Carolina that means NO F**KING TIME LIMIT PERIOD. The MOCO would have to honor the extension. Then I would hit them with the LEMON law.
So my next bike is going to be an OCC Chopper, NOT!

Mike it's the same in Maryland. The problem is no one challenges the Motor Company in a Court of Law. I still may. Not because it's a big ticket item, but because of the principal of the problem. I am tired of hearing about all of the problems on here. Some get resolved and others don't. And this is just with CVO's. Believe me I hear about the other trash they put out here on the street as well from a friend.

I love riding in all weather. But it was so cold that morning when I stopped at McDonalds in New Oxford I couldn't get my hands to stop shaking. Good memories though!!!!

Well for those who know me know I am being very calm right now. You are correct, it doesn't matter how many CVO's or what else I own. I worked for and earned every penny of it!!!!

right on

Just because I own a lot of things I work hard for, someone should not honor their warranty?  That is the most idiotic thing I have heard.  That is called jealousy.  You should really check that at the door. 

As I type this my serg is sitting in my garage with other bikes, atvs cars etc.  I am actually sipping on a fine beer that is brewed in small batches in Quebec, in my 45 ft diesel pusher motor home.   I guess no warranties apply to me.   maybe when I get to my home in Florida, I can check down there.   DAWG,  I AM RIGHT THERE WITH YOU BROTHER.   fight them to the end.  Peace out with all your toys, you earned them.  Just as I did with my family.

[Rooster]

Bet that beer tasted goooood. Carry on as said if you earned what you got, good for you. If you didn't earn it at least I hope you take care of what you have.

It was great.  Go check them out,  I know you can buy it in florida.  It's called dominius vobiscum sasaion.   Its like the 12 year old single malts of  beer.
per
I also have a bottle of Sam Adams Utopias we enjoy on occasion.   Google that one.   It's awesome!.

As for the rest,  I have worked hard since I was 16,  and I am now 38 going on 39 in November.   I sold my commercial construction/fire and water restoration business last year,  and I am setting up my motorcycle maintenance, performance, and customising shop.   Finally working at something I love instead of something I have to do. 

I am getting a few big names on board as well from different areas on motorcycles and snowmobiles.   

I have the shop on my house property so I just walk to work now,  I don't have to answer to anyone and I LOVE spinning wrenches.

It sounds like you have a good plan. That would be nice to not have to rush early to get to work. Plus you get to do something you love to do!!!

Good Luck!

Sorry, but I think this is a petty complaint compared to all the bad compensators, valve guides, and similar.

Also, Harley (and I) probably thought you didn't really care much about the problem if it took you that long to get some free work done.

Four CVO's?  A house on the beach?  I just cant sympathize, sorry.

It's kind of like you sell a guy a bike, he calls you about a problem, you say bring it by and he'll make it right, then you don't hear from him for 10 months.

Wow, I did not think we had rude and jealous people like ^^^^^this on this site.

Should not matter if he has one, or 20 bikes.  My guess is, his stuff like mine is the result of hard work and careful planning. 

I have had the compositor issue on my 09 SERG.  Had the lifter issue on my 09 SERG, the regulator issue on my 12 SERG.  Yet I still feel his issue should be fixed, as its a repeat failure, not the first time under warranty.

So because I have a Log Home on the Lake ( built it because I could not afford to buy one), Five bikes, of which one is a 15 SERGU, a 15 Road Glide Special, with a custom paint job, a 13 SERK with a built motor, a 09 Heritage, a 03 custom fatboy, I guess in you mind I should not get the saddle bag fasteners replaced under warranty.

I have what I have due to very hard work.  20 years in the Navy enlisted, and put my self though college while raising three girls.  Worked two jobs for several years.  Now I work 21 days on, and 21 off.  While on, its off shore, 12 to 14 hours a day 7 days a week.

All the demonizing of success and successful people is really disturbing. It's sad to see where the culture is going in this country.

EXACTLY Dave!!!I worked my ass off for 30 plus years. Missing a lot of Holidays and Special Events with my Family and Friends. No body gave me anything.

Yes the warranty issues are going to kill Harley if they don't wake up. It's a shame that we are treated like we are. We own the Flagship of the Motor Company!!!!

Oh and BTW THANK YOU FOR YOUE SERVICE!!!!
