RE: Oil plug stuck.
I wish this was a joke 1fltri4me. I really think I did it this time. Me and Sonny got the screw out, but I think I cracked the bottom of my case. He was heating it with the torch and I was banging on it with my hammer and it came loose, but we both see a crack near the screw. All the oil is out. I wonder if warranty will cover this.
What can I fix this with? I'm hoping the dealer can get me in sooner than Friday. I don't feel like riding tomorrow now. My OL is going to be mad.

The dealership IS going to send someone out to pick it up. They told me to put the plug back in and fill it back up with oil and they would send someone to ride it back into the shop. I hope the crack was in the case BEFORE all of this and it is covered by warranty.
I'm thinkingharley is going to screw me and charge me forthe crack when it could havealready been there.Not looking good as of now. This may turn into a court battle. I don't know who to go after first, my neighbor or harley.[:@]

RE: Oil plug stuck.
..problem solved..buy new case, and no way is dealer going to fix this under warranty. You might want to take up jogging..cause it's going to be a while before you get it running. Try not to do any of your own wrenching..get someone that knows what they are doing to take care of your bike. You are rapidly turning a $20,0000 bike into a $7000 bike.
Good Luck
