7:30 am PST 7.7.2009 knock on my door..

Tow truck driver standing there with paper work to take my bike....

Harley ( Mother ) had a tow truck come and take my bike WTF or GOOD NEWS ??

No phone call, no warnings... they just took it.

I called Harley and ask where are you taking my bike, they told me to stand by.

Could be all good news - I am praying hard....

 

Cool, maybe they're taking it back to the mother ship for recycling and will beam you a brank spankin new one!

 

Wow - Interesting development. Looks like you have done all the right things. Good luck

 

They took it to Bob's Welding up the road. Then a quick stop at Kmart for a can of Gloss Black and back to your place. J/K

Curious to find out what they do.

 

The big selling point of the 09s was the new frame. I would think MOCO would want that bike back at the factory as soon as possible! QC is the issue here and I am sure MOCO would like to nip this in the bud immediatly!

 

I don't think that Harley has to replace anything. They could have the frame welded and tell you good enough. The NTSB allowed Honda to do that with the Goldwind when they had welds crack. They would reweld the frame and that was all. Everybody that had the problem wanted a new bike or a new frame but they were only required to weld the frame. There is alot of history out on the web about the frame breakage on the Goldwing that pertain to this.

 

I don't think that is exactly right. Gold Wings did have a re-call on some years of frames but if during inspection they were found broken the the frame was replaced. On the others the suspected welds which were still hold fine were beefed up some.

 

Would have been funnier if a guy showed up with a welding truck and asked where your bike is.

 

Heres hoping for you to get a decent job which ever way they do it

 

Well Thank You for the bike that was me and the bike will be on EBAY soon.
