True with most things, but not Harley. Harley denies they have and issues. My 2015 like my 2009 had lifter failure that took out the engine. The 09 was after warranty was up, the 15 was 2 days before it was two years old.

The lifter issues has been an issues since 2007 when the 110 came out, still an issue last year of production, ten years later.

A 110 can easily be brought out to 117 or larger if you wish. Plenty power options and there is no warranty or epa issues. Just my opinion.

Wife rides a M8.
The M8 is much faster, more powerful, has more torque, runs cooler & is smoother.
I still like my old TC better.

I'd never sell my bike, take a loss, and then spend thousands of $$$$$$$ to get something just because it's the latest thing. Been there, done that. I learned my lesson.
I used to do that every couple years. I'd buy a new bike, spend big $$$$$ making it what I wanted, then lose all that money by trading it in after a couple years, only to start all over again. I realized that was just a really dumb thing to do, and i learned to just appreciate what I had, because a lot of the time, I wound up wishing I had kept my old bike because I liked it better than the new one I just bought.
