We all get hard headed somethines (this is not going to get the better of me mind set), but, if its a new 07 I think you have let a dealer problem become your problem. Good luck.

 

Thats why im asking here if you think it would be a warranty issue. My dealer just told me to drill them out and use a easy out. I dont (wont) want to do that, I just think they are avoiding the problem.

 

Have you tried calling the stealer to see if they can come get it. Atleast one of our stealers out here have an enclosed trailer. LV,NV.

 

I had to drill the head off of all 5 of my bolts. Once the heads were off I could unscrew them with my fingers.

 

Wylee Why dont ya just pull the Primary Cover off. 5 min...and take it to the dealer the fluids already out...... Let them remove the screws ..Trotter

 

Since when did anyone add oil through the Derby Cover ?????
For God's sake top up the oil (correctly) and take it back to the dealer for a solution.

the last post sounds like the best idea at this point, the only down fall is the primary gasket should be "replaced", let the dealer undo the moco problem. I'm amazed the the moco hasn't come with a tech bulletin to remove overtorqued fasteners installed at the factory and install new ones on moco's dime. It's their screw up they should fix it. Wait what am I saying the moco admit to something like that.

We had the same problem removing the cover from my '00 Dyna. Had to use a dremel to cut slots in the bolt. Used a hammer and chisel to remove them.

 

I have read many of these solutions.. and all are sound in my opinion.. [sm=smiley20.gif]I had a similar problem with mine and followed Muds advice... after heating the bike up... I used an impact driver only I "DROVE" a size 30 torx head into the size 27screw head(after breaking my 27 [sm=headbang.gif]bit) and they all came out. I cant believe your stealer told you that... drill them yourself and...[sm=icon_blah.gif]... what a bunch of goofs... I would MAKE them fix this issue.. they were happy to see you when you bought and paid for the bike with your hard earned cash.. they should be happy to help you with this problem.
On a side note I have been thinking about "developing" or creating a derby cover that will have a small refill nozzle with a screw on cap on it.. placing the nozzle at the top of the cover in an insignifigant and molded fashion. Should make refills with a small funnel a snap. Wonder why HD never thought of it? Hmmmm?
