    I had a hard time gittin it fixed like I wanted it fixed. Several dealerships said they was gonna use touch up paint.
    Found out you have to git somebody to talk to their rep and fight for you.
    I didn't buy my bike at any of the dealerships I was trying to git to fix it for me either.
    Hated the bike being down and I
    And when I git impatient I start raisin cane.
    And can't stand the bike not being downstairs.

    Guess yer gonnna have monday made in anything. Didn't want to be the one gittin one of the monday bikes.

    Got a buddy that wrecked his Vette. After he got it back he notised rock chips on it where it had been painted. I told him to take it to a Bodyshop that does great work called Fawbush.
    He did this week and they told him whomever painted it didn't use a primer to make the paint stick to he plastic.
    He called his insurance company and they got the old paint and body shop to meet them with the insurance company.
    The old body shop said the plastic part comes with the primer.
    Fawbush said we heard the same thing, till we had to repaint 4 cars.
    Now we spray everything with the primer, period.
    Hes gittin a new paint job.

    I have a 2011 CVO RoadGlide with 2500 miles, the dealer is picking it up because the oil pressure is at almost 60 at idol, and the bike runs terrible. I think it is getting hot because the back cylinder cuts out at idol to cool it. This just started all of a sudden, I will keep you guys posted on what they find out. Maybe $37,000.00 was not enough to pay, I should of got the expensive one! As you can tell I am not happy.
