Hey Bob, sucks about the ESP. HD replaced my frame outside of warranty but I was on the hook for labor to the tune of $2400 couples years ago. If the issue was reported PRIOR to the expiration of the ESP, fight it. It would be documented. Good luck either way man.

 

Moral of the story. Always report imaginary issues while under warranty!

 

That's why they paint cars different colors, my friend.

 

Thanks guys. I hope they do right by me too. I have it documented that it was brought in for that noise under ESP. They even replaced the lifters thinking that may cure the issue. The mechanic tried telling me it was a different noise than the one they heard the first time, which is BS. It's the exact same noise under the exact same circumstances. Fortunately I described it in detail the first time around, which is the same way I described it this time. We'll see. What I do know is that unless they cover it, they won't be doing the work.

 

And we have a winner! Let's tell him what he's won! An all expense paid, two night three day stay at our lovely TOAK!

 

Oh yeah, what color?

 

Chris, the TOAK is more like the Hotel California.

 

I did. Real and imagined. I brought it to them last Fall for the ticking noise and I told them, my warranty is expiring in June. I want you to go over the bike with a fine toothed comb. All they came back with was a leaking rocker gasket. The lifters fell under maintenance, so I paid for that, an ABS brake system flush, a fuel filter, and a battery. I've given them plenty of money. I think they need to consider that.

 

As I read what I've wrote I am not saying that your noises are imaginary. Just in case someone though that.

 

Quite a few of them are the color of Al's bike.
