Halito Greg, Mick, Larry, Woods. Glad to hear Chris still kickin'.....hope all heals well. Glad to hear Larry getting in and getting taken care of. Hope all is well there.
Hate to hear about you other guys that are fighting whatever stomach/flu ailment you have. Hope it's over quick!!
Gotta head out a bit myself, so I'm outta here but will be back later lurking!!!

Good morning Mick, Greg and all. Well wishes and positive vibes to all those ailing.
The Harley dealer called me and informed me my starter had to be replaced. I know good and well it did not. The starter clutch gear is going and the I guarantee the starter itself is just fine. I will never take my bike to the dealer again. My '07 did the same thing, it is a common failure with '07, '08 and maybe a few more years. My '07 Springer did the exact same thing and I had the gear replaced with a better gear for under $300. It is a 2 hour job. The dealer wants $1000 to replace the starter.

Mornin, Jeff. It would be nice if situations like yours weren't so commonplace.
Mornin, Rob. Feeling better?
