Mike from Canada
« on: February 06, 2008, 04:44:10 PM »

I purchased my first CVO bike last year. A 2007 FXDSE. I have been reading through some of the threads and have noticed issues with heat on the 110. Oil leaks on the rear cylinder. Rocker Box clearances ... etc.

I can honestly say that I have had not one of any these issues. I put on about 5000 miles last summer heading down to Las Vegas and then back to Calgary. The bike drives great and I have had no real issues. The chrome did flake on one of my rear shocks and Harley replaced it immediately.

I also installed a PCIII, Rinehart 2into1, LePera Sorrento seat, airfoil controls, forward control extensions, low profile tail light and chrome covers. My dealer as also been more than willing to service the bike and any warantee issues have not been a problem as long as it is a part I didn't modify. For example, the seal around my speedometer needed replacing.

Anyhow .... Glad to be hear and hoping to share advice and gain knowledge !!

Welocme to the site from Victoria.  The rainy city.  Glad to hear you haven't had any problems with your 110.  I have a friend who has one and he drives the crap out of it and he hasn't had any problems either. 

Regards, Moe

Great to see all the responses ... I can hardly wait for the snow to disappear so I can start touring the country again and meeting some new found CVO friends.

Here is a link to some pictures I took last year down around Zion Canyon on my trip. I want to go back as soon as possible. It was a blast.

There are a couple of folk in your back yard that sit and chat here, and whom we have had the great pleasure to meet.  I was born in Nanaimo, and raised in Northern Saskatchewan.  A long way from home now, but am faintly familiar with your seasons.  So glad to hear such a positive introduction of both yourself and a bike that has no issues.  Way Cool.  Welcome to a great site.
