I was under the impression that the stator problem had been fixed in '07 and later models. I have 8k on my '07 and have had no problems whatsoever.

My 07 stator was gone around 10,000. Then oil pump cratered. All was fixed under warranty. Will buy extended warranty before this runs out.

I have an 07 FXDC and mine went at 3500 miles. I can upload the itemized list of the work order if you guys would like to see.

If you're a regular customer and have had your bike serviced at a franchise, ask for good will. Franchises are allotted so much per year from the factory (depending on how much business they do and their [financial] reporte with Milwaukee).
The stator problem may very well be due to the compensator nut being too loose. There is a spacer/shim that is available to tighten things up there.
I've seen starter bendix/clutches go early sometimes because the rider misses the turn signal and hits the starter button while the bike is running. Even though the clutch is designed to run "backward" in relation to the direction in takes to turn over your drive-train, it's not good to engage it while the bike is running. I"ve known of some riders to unwittingly hit the start button just by the way they hold their hand on the bar/grip. Crazy, I know; but it is what it is- sorta like some riders who rest their toe on the shifter.
As far as the lifters go; I don't know what to tell you there.
