MOTORCYCLE HESITATES, SPUTTERS, STALLS WHEN ACCELERATING USUALLY WHEN ITS COLD. I FOUND A SERVICE BULLETIN M-1185 FROM HARLEY DAVIDSON. I CALLED THEIR CUSTOMER CARE REF #3378245, TOLD ME TO DROP IT OFF AT A DEALERSHIP. THEN DEALERSHIP SAID HD DENIED REPLACEMENT OF THE UPDATED / MOD FUEL INJECTORS. THE BIKE HAS 5K MILES ON IT.

FRONT BRAKE LOCKED UP AT LOW SPEEDS ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. I THOUGHT IT WAS A TIRE ISSUE AND REPLACED THEM. BIKE CONTINUED TO HAVE BRAKE(S) LOCK UP AT LOW TO MEDIUM SPEEDS (35 OR LESS) JUST BROUGHT VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHO RESET THE BRAKE PISTONS AND STATED THAT IT WAS NOT UNCOMMON FOR THE BRAKE CALIPERS TO "LOOSE THEIR MEMORY" AND REMAIN IN A HALF CLOSED POSITION FACILITATING THE CALIPER LOCK-UP. I ASKED WHETHER THIS WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A POSSIBILITY. HAVING THE BRAKES LOCK UP IN A NON-PANIC SITUATION WHEN YOU DON'T ANTICIPATE THE POSSIBILITY IS A LIFE THREATENING ISSUE. BTW MY BRAKES ARE NOT ABS. *TR

I TOOK THE BIKE TO BE CHECKED AT HACIENDA HARLEY DAVIDSON DEALERSHIP IN SCOTTSDALE AZ IN JUNE OF 2008 WHICH AT THE TIME THE SERVICE MANAGER SHOWED ME THE LOOSE REAR WHEEL SPOKES. MY CONCERN WAS NOT ONLY ABOUT THE WOBBLE BUT WOULD IT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT? THE MANAGER SUGGESTED TO REPLACE THE REAR WHEEL ('TIGHTENING THE SPOKES WILL ONLY FIX THE PROBLEM TEMPORARILY' WAS HIS QUOTE). ACCORDING TO HIM THIS WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM BY HARLEY DAVIDSON. THIS IS

I COASTED TO THE BOTTOM OF THE GRADE AND PULLED OFF ONTO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. WHEN I STOPPED, THE FUEL PUMP PUMPED UP, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND WENT OFF, AND I STARTED THE BIKE AND WENT ON. ABOUT 3 DAYS LATER IT DONE IT AGAIN, AGAIN GOING DOWN A STEEP GRADE. THIS TIME I PULLED IN THE CLUTCH AND FLIPPED THE ENGINE KILL SWITCH OFF AND ON AND THE ELECTRIC CAME BACK. I STARTED THE BIKE AND WENT ON. IT DID IT A TOTAL OF THREE TIMES IN TEN DAYS, AND EACH TIME I WAS GOING DOWN A GRADE. I TOO
