Sounds like the majority has spoken!
That's the greatest part of being an American.
Even the minority gets to express their opinion!
But damn it, I better get out of this thread since the Classic and the Frontier don't have leather tour paks.

Thanks guys!
I love this place!

I noticed Chip was the last one to reply to this thread, so I thought, "I wonder what Chip has to say about 'Leather TourPak Problems?'" [smiley=nixweiss.gif]  Well, after reading the last page-and-a-half, I finally realized, "Nothing." [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif] [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif] [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif]

Good observation Brian!

My comments were based on Bill's quote,

"Sure, I remember...you had more problems than I could imagine...hope you at least got in some riding this summer!  Good luck with HD...the whole system is crap...they talk of "family" but in the end they just pit dealer against customer against manufacturer. "

That was my only point.

A real one not a clone!

Update:

Met with Ed the Local HD Rep. today. After looking at the problem he took many pictures. He told me that he had not seen this before and has not heard anything about it but he also said he doesn't see a lot of CVO's. He called a guy that is something like the chief of the CVO's but got his voice mail. He left a message describing the problem and he would be sending the pictures tonight to him. He told me that they would most likely cover it under warranty one time but it may happen again he doesn't see how it could be prevented. I told him I was not in a hurry for it to be replaced as long as it was going to be covered. I asked him to check into it with the engineers if they experienced it and if they had a plan to correct this problem.

So I ask this of everyone that has this problem to present it to you dealer and make sure that the dealer reports it.
The more HD is made aware of it the quicker something will be done to get it corrected.

I don't just want it replaced 1 time I want it replaced with one that I know will not have this problem again.
Many owners may be willing to just accept it for what it is but not me and the 07's have the same Tourpak so unless something has changed 07 owners should be checking and watching for this also.
If anybody seen what the one looked like that I seen in Gettysburg I am positive they would not be willing to accept it either. The tear in mine is about 1/2" long on each side but I know they are going to get worse and now it is starting to rub on the side by the lock button.
The price tag on this tourpak is $1500 and that is for a standard one, ours with the CVO medallion on them I am sure is much more.

My other issues about the fender paint under the seat and the seat itself are going to be reviewed with the CVO group also. He took plenty of pictures to send to them.
