Update 110" Replacement Motor Installed by Harley Davidson
« on: September 08, 2007, 05:42:48 PM »

The Dealer requested the new motor on 09/04/07 at 9 AM (West Coast Time) told it would take 7 - 10 days to ship a new motor complete. I contacted Harley and infromed all of my dismay with their product, the 110 motor. I also inquired of someone in the Executive Offices (Ken), where is my check for my Research and Development hours? Needless to say he did not care for my attitude and gave me the usual jargon.

However, within 4 days of the motor request my bike is done. I will be picking the bike up in one hour and start the break in period of the newly designed 110 motor complete. The new motor was shipped overnight to Las Vegas, Nevada with my original VIN stamped on it.

Bottom Line - The service at all ends of the chain has been exceptional, I only wish the service was not required in the first place.

Now I'm excited I was told Thursday that a motor had been ordered but thought it would take a few week to get.

Well it running sorta, it just the results of not fixing it right the first time.  Has a bad vibration in the motor about 4000rpm,  and they finally agreed to replace it after riding the bike.

So the shavings/debris from the oil pump failure was either part of more damage or did more damage all by itself.  That's too bad.  Would've been nice if it could have stayed the relatively simple failure.  At least this hopefully you'll not have to worry about it anymore.  Following a pump failure the old one would have been in the back of my mind for a long time.  So maybe that's the silver lining?

What does a newly designed 110 motor mean? :nixweiss:
What justifies that description?
Thanks!

New / different design / modified flywheel (engine component) new / different design / modified O rings, (internal engine parts), new / different / modified gasket kits (internal engine support parts), and many other changes.

To quote the Motor Company, "newly designed internals". 

The Quote justifies the description, in my eyes .

That's the same thought that passed between my ears also Dave.  Since we've already heard of new gaskets and other voodoo everyone can hope that the "re-redesign" or more technical than marketing oriented.  What a mess it's been for so many.  Good luck guys!

Make no mistake about it, we, the 110 Group are running BETA motors. Again, we are the uncompensated R&D for the Motor Company.

So states the motor Company. The Dealer techs have no idea of the so called new design, they are merely installing the motor sent to them. I didn't receive any paperwork on the new motor since it was stamped with my original VIN. The old motor is shipping back to HD with some other stuff next week.

As you know from reading my previous posts regarding my 110 motor, I received work orders on all work except the replacement motor sent from the factory stamped with my VIN. At this point in time I believe the 110 is still a work in progress. I have the 2007 FLHRSE3 Parts Catalog and Service Manual Supplement and I am registered to receive updates / ammendments for both the Parts Catalog and Service Manual, to date I have not received a single update.

Are you waiting for a new motor, if so, did you receive your it?
