Someone in our Hog Owners Group just had his new CVO seize at 350 miles. He complained that his oil light stayed on all the time, but the dealer blew him off saying "the engine is just running tight".   :'(

Sounds like the oil pump is now an issue on the M8s or at least some M8s. This is more than 1 bike with an oil light on that resulted in a broken engine very early on.

Let's hope he did not make any modifications to the bike.  I am sure MoCo would hop all over that and deny the claim.

I have to assume this person is just as clueless as the dealership, if he actually accepted that ignorant response.  I can't wrap my head around the idea of ANYONE of driving age not knowing you don't keep driving or riding with the oil light on.

What was the problem, no oil in the pan or the oil pump quit working?  If it was no oil in the pan, I'll be interested in seeing who winds up having to take responsibility for the repairs.

You'd think in this day and age that the engine would stop running and refuse to start and a sensor would throw a code to protect the engine if no oil is flowing or present in the pan.

Those things are possible, but I'd hate to be the guy responsible for adding a feature to a vehicle that shuts it down on purpose while it's running.  Those liability lawyers would be salivating.  IMHO we have too much nanny stuff already, and will probably be forced to accept more, thanks to the vast number of people these days who don't read the manuals, don't know the basics about their vehicles, and don't pay much attention to anything but their phone.

Some cars have had low oil level sensors, but they didn't shut anything down they just flashed another warning to the driver.  If a driver ignores a low pressure idiot light, what makes anyone think they would pay attention to a low oil level light?  Many cars these days have an oil life indicator as well, to tell you it's time to change the oil.  I've seen people ignore those too.  I know, how about if we have the systems immediately shut down the infotainment and sound systems along with any mobile device reception?  Now that would get a lot of peoples attention.

You almost have to believe the oil pump issue on the M8's is a vendor issue.  Because if it's a design flaw....    :nervous: :nervous:

As a former beta tester of a 2007 110 Twin Cam, you all have my condolences...    :(

Sadly, I'd imagine most of the testing miles were with pre-production parts/assembly.  Gets approved and production starts, when they discover "can't get there from here" on the line, so changes get made to accommodate production.  One million miles down the drain and the odometer resets to zero, but "we've already committed, so just go with it."
