Yes I bought it back in January. They have had it about 3 weeks now waiting for a new fairing, front fender and saddle bag lid.

  WOW , THATS ALOT OF NON USE FOR A NEW  CVO.  YOU MAY WANT TO CHECK WITH A LEMON LAW ATTORNEY. THATS SOUNDS LIKE A SUBSTANTIAL LOSS OF USE ,  I  DON'T KNOW FOR SURE BUT YOU MIGHT GET A FEW BUCKS FOR THE INCONVIENCE. JUST MY 2 CENTS. MY FRIEND HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH HIS CAR AND GOT AN INCONVIENCE  '' FEE''  OF $ 3,500.....

I sure hope I don't have to get a lawyer involved. The weather is starting to change here. I may need to remind my dealer of that, every day for awhile.

Welcome to the forum from North Georgia! Congrats on your new CVO!

Sorry to read about your paint issues. The dealer may be waiting awhile for replacement CVO tins. From what I've read here and elsewhere, the MoCo has a revolving schedule for painting different colors. Not likely they would pull painted parts from production for warranty claims. Hang in there... If the dealer has the parts ordered, there probably is little or nothing they can do to speed up delivery.

I had to wait 7 weeks for my Tour Pak. I don't know if warranty parts are handled any differently than custom-order parts. I would like to think they are - but my gut tells me that everything's likely handled on a sequential basis...

I have heard finger print under the clear coat stories enough to wonder if the quality control inspector has his mind on riding instead of QC. Hope they get you rolling quick.

            When I was shopping for a ride in 2011, I was at one dealer and I'd looked at a new/used 103 classic. I told the dealer I was leaning more to an CVO, he at that time said,.... Well if that's the way you want to go that's ok,... but just be prepaired to wait for any parts you my need, it could take twice as long for 110 parts as to 103.
I thought to my self THAT'S a sales pitch,... but have come to learn he was not far wrong. Keep on top of your dealer and don't be scared to push after all you can use the line,... HAY THERE WAS NO PAINT FLAWS WITH THE MONEY YOU TOOK!!! that kind of line can motivate them. Good luck hope it all gets sorted soon for ya foxman.

Hang in there on the paint and don't hesitate to scope out the replacement parts thoroughly for flaws. Not sure where the QC goes on some of this stuff but they do seem to miss soem real obvious flaws. Congrats on the new ride and enjoy many safe miles!

[foxman]

Thanks guys. I am definitely going to check it out when I get it back. I'm going to take a couple of buddies with me to check it also, I might be so excited to get it back I may miss something. They might  be using this as a sales tactic. I went and bought a Harley bubble to keep it in.

Hello all. I bought my first CVO in January (a 2013 FLHTCUSE8). Louisville Harley delivered it on my birthday (Happy Birthday to me!). While I was out in the garage admiring all the beauty I found fingerprints that wouldn't wipe off, they are under the clear coat. My motorcycle is back at the dealer waiting for a new fairing and front fender. So while I try to stay sane I have been watching youtube videos about these bikes. I found some that describe alot of wind buffeting and really unstable handling about this particular bike. My 2011 Ultra Limited was very stable. Do any of you have that problem?

Welcome from Ont. Canada-- I bought the sister to your CVO - in Star Dust-- haven't ridden it yet because of the long winters - got 3 ins. of new snow to-day- hope to be riding soon

WELCOME FROM CONCORD, N.C.  I'd ask for a delivery date on the parts and want to ride it till they came in. Prints shouldn't ruin your ride, just think of it like bugs you havn't washed off yet.
