Do these motors have the same lifter problems as the 2011 and 2012 CVO 110?

[Boatman]

OhioDave changed his lifters on his 2009 SEUltra as preventative maintenance at 40,000 miles and they were still good.

My 2010 had a lifter roller failure at 33,000 miles as well as hydraulic tensioner failure.

We both put in S&S premiums without limiters.

Read on here and people with the same year bikes got less than 10,000 miles on theirs.

FWIW

My 09 SERG had the lifter rollers go out at 44K miles.

My 12 SERG had no issues with lifters up to 46K when I traded it

Yes...

  Has anyone heard of a failure of the supposedly "improved" 13 and up lifters? Should be enough high mileage bikes at this point to make a determination if they are junk like the previous generation.

38250 on the 2010 I traded, no issues, other than an oil consumption issue at 19k. I purchased a 2011 with 17k I hope this one runs without issue for a long time.

Was out in WA State with some Friends last summer, on our 6800 mile bike ride.  Mike's 2014 CVO Limited with 20K on it while riding down had a lifter roller go out. 

That's the only one I know of for sure.
