Well just like the title. I was on my way home from work and cruising down the road and the motor just cuts out. I got her pulled over into a parking lot and tried to restart her with no joy. Call my dealer and they couldn't come get the bike but they gave me the number to a motorcycle towing company and told me that they would reimburse me for the tow. They picked up the bike at my house today and found out that my ECM is fried. They are going to pull an ECM of a bike they have to see if thats the total problem so I can get back on the road. Hopefully nothing else is wrong but well find out tomorrow.

 

bummer, shipmate! gonna be done before the GTG @ Tom's?

 

Oh yea. Thats 3 weeks away. Shouldnt be a problem. The service manager said they should have it fixed tomorrow. El Cajon Harley treats me pretty good and take good care of me.

 

El Cajon H-D is a great dealer. Rode a few hundred miles to buy my second bike down there.

 

good reason to look into 'Road america' this would be a pisser if you were days from your house...

 

Good deal for your dealer willing to pull one out of a new bike. Most would just tell ya that they'd order you one......meaning, no riding!!

 

i would be worried that there is another underlying issue. ecms don't just typically 'go bad', though that isn't unheard of.

good luck

 

That sucks, did you have a tuner installed?

 

had the ecm on my 07 heritage go out bike had about 500 miles on it. shop said they very seldom see one go out. 30k miles later and no other issues with the bike at all. had mine back the next day.

 

Nope no tuner installed.
