Default frustrated!!

Fuel pump is broke!!!! I only go the bike 2 months ago and it only has 300 miles on it!! talk about frustration!! its been over a week and the HD shop in New Rochelle, NY is still working on it! And the weather has been great the past week. (sigh)
They told me it would be done this week so hopefully the weather still holds up enough for me to make up for lost time. I can't wait to get back on and ride!! oh and I posted a thread abouot mini Apes I'm getting on my 883L but forgot to ask how much installation is for that? Anyone know? or have a ballpark figure?

Sorry to hear it, if anything is going to go wrong with a bike it always happens during the best riding weather of the season.
Are you serious that you have only put 300 miles on it in 2 months? I put more than that on the first day!
Hope you get it back soon.

Unfortunately yes, only 300 miles. Between my full-time job and military work and my wife :-) I only have so much time to ride. But hopefully I'll get it back soon and I can add to that total

I don't know about the apes. But I know about the fuel pump, mine went out at 326 miles.
