I am glad you got things worked out[8D] It sure does feel good to get back on it
If it was me, I would keep what I have[8D]
But please keep us posted, as I don't think a bike can ever be trouble free

It wasnt just this shop, H.D. actually had some of their techs and engineers busting their brains over this for the last week also.
ORIGINAL: teach

Yep, he wouldn't have had a choice if they hadn't found the problem. Its normally something silly like this but I do understand how it can be very frustrating. The Lemon Law sucks, so if you ever have to use it be prepared for the LONG runaround. I would try what you were thinking before attempting the Lemon Law ever again.
Sounds like the shop got in a lucky guess which resulted in a fix, BUT you might consider shopping for a new place to have your bike work done. Swapping parts isn't troubleshooting and simply demonstrates the shops inability to deal with mechanical issues. This time it was under warranty but what if you'd have been paying? I think you see my point.
Regardless I'm glad your fixed and back riding, be safe.......... T

ps... make sure you have copies of ALL the work that was done for your own records. Make sure that EVERYTHING they worked on/replaced/swapped/etc is loaded in the computer under your bikes VIN & get a copy for your own records. I'm not saying this is gonna come back to bite you, but if any work they performed causes a problem later on you want to be able to say they caused it so they eat the maintenance costs. It is vital that EVERYTHING is listed separately in the computer, not just a general description.

Ride safe......

I'm glad to hear that it was that easy.. Just makes me wonder why the speedo would cause that.. But..... As far as the ride goes.. It was DANG cold up here yesterday!! Makes the pipes sound better!!
