Doesn't it suck you pay 25 grand?
« on: April 22, 2019, 11:04:29 PM »
You spend 25 grand on a new bike, then you have to spend even more to "fix"
all the f--k ups. Like the cams, chitty heads, crank run out, chitty exhaust and the
list goes on. What a bunch of f--ktards.

Yes why do many people accept this in a bike but if it was happening to our cars/trucks we wouldn't accept it?!

This is why I refuse to even consider buying a new bike.  I can't imagine what it could cost to get a new CVO up to par with Kermit.   :vrolijk27:

The last new one I bought (06 FXST) was 25 grand. The steering head bearings were loose and they
tole me it was a "maintenance issue". It was brand new with 15 miles on it! WTF?

As long as people keep accepting this crap, they'll keep making this $hit.

Nice looking bike Kirby.

I bought a 2000 Dyna b/c it has the "good" crank and no fuel injection.
I upgraded it to 95CI KB domed pistons and a set of my killer MCE heads.
Waiting for my D&D Fat Cat to come in and I'll be ready to dyno tune it.

1.95/1.61 valves with DME590 cams. I don't plan to ride it much but I
want it to run like a raped ape.

Customer work has put it on the back burner but I'll have it running soon.
