Blown 110 Engine on Red Jester
« on: December 07, 2006, 09:35:17 AM »
Picked up my bike from the HD Shop last night, and there was a gorgeous CVO Red Jester sitting in the shop area.  I asked what the bike was in for.  I was told that at 100 miles, the engine needed to be replaced.  It would get too hot and not cool down.  They said the owner just took in stride.  Once the determination that a replacement was what would happen, it took them only five days to get in the new engine and get it ready for pick up.  I feel silly complaining about heated grip failure.

Major bummer!  I think mine will be going in a trailer for its ride home from SC.  Besides, it may be too cold next weekend.

Cheers!

Hey Don, should I be worried here. That's the second one. Chit, for what I'm spending, I could put an S&S 124 or Jims 120 and a Baker 6 Speed, PM brakes, Legend Air Ride, etc. on my '03 RK, For the $20K it's costing me to move up. Can you remind me again why I'm doing this, besides talking to you guys here?

Guess a saving grace to your working so diligently to keep the warranty in tact is that if it eats itself within two years they'll give you a new motor.

Now Twolanerider.  You are going to just scare poor Hoist into modifying his bike before he even picks it up from the dealer and then his thread about how long he will last before modifying will still be good, as you said that anything he adds before delivery does not count.   [smiley=nervous.gif] [smiley=nervous.gif] [smiley=nervous.gif] [smiley=nervous.gif]  :)

I wish this wasn't posted under blown engines because you know that part of it is not my intent. That's great, and is consistent with all my research thus far. Which is why my bike will never see the street without this stuff. And the best part is, he gets to keep his 2 Year Warranty! ;) Hoist!

I didn't even know what the stock pipes sounded like until I went back to the dealer and they fired up a B&O that they had on the floor.
