I don't think I'll you'll have to worry too much about meeting me or riding with me since I don't normally associate with whiners. Additionallly, there's a lot more wrong with American than some guy voicing an opinion. Get over it.
Hey Howg Whiner, Funny I am not talking about point of view, could really care less. What I am talking about is the ethical value system people lack. By your comments you are exactly what I am with reference to.

actually, it doesn't sound to me like you offended 'his delicate feelings', but more that he is a 'tell it like it is' kinda guy.

since you (the op) don't seem like you think that dealership techs are all that competent, i got a deal for you. after you get your bike back, i'll trade you my 07 road king even up. my bike has never been wrecked, or had a frame replacement. even has new tires front and rear. sounds like a deal to me.....

Did you consult with an attorney? We're talking about a LOT being at stake here: Most importantly is the potential safety issue which could lead to a loss of life or lives, not to mention certain injury if assembly has flaws or if there are other undetected flaws. Second, you made a significant purchase in good faith from Harley. You don't want a "pig in a poke" after it's all said and done. And have you thought that maybe, even if the bike is repaired correctly, that there will be a diminished value after the repair? A perfectly repaired car has a diminished value due to the fact it was repaired according to most insurance companies.

I wouldn't take another step without consulting a good attorney... As a matter of fact, I would have had an attorney write the letter to Harley. Such a letter would carry a lot more weight and importance. With that said, if I were in your situation, Harley would "eat" your present bike and give me a new one and it would be a 2010. A good attorney would see that you would be taken care of. (Note: No, I'm not an attorney, but I recognize when it's best to use one.)

Yeah and if I were HD Legal, I would tell you to shove it where the sun don't shine. Take the new frame or we will let the courts work this out in, oh about 2011.

Windbags like you are the reason our liability rates are so damn high.
