What owners report
THE FUEL GAUGE DOESN'T READ PROPERLY ANYWHERE BELOW FULL. I LEARNED FROM FELLOW OWNERS THAT THIS PROBLEM IS COMMON TO ALL VRSCA MODELS. FACTORY REPLACEMENT OF THE FUEL LEVEL ITEMS DOES NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. POORLY ENGINEERED PART THAT NEEDS A REDESIGN. *TT
DT: THE CONTACT OWNED A 2004 HARLEY DAVIDSON VRSCA. HE FELT THAT THIS WAS A MAJOR SAFETY PROBLEM WITH THE MOTORCYCLE. THIS PARTICULAR MOTORCYCLE CAME WITH A SOLID WHEEL. WHENEVER GOING AT A HIGH SPEED THERE WAS A MAJOR POSSIBILITY OF LOSING CONTROL OF THE MOTORCYCLE BECAUSE OF THE WIND. THIS COULD RESULT IN A FATALITY. CONTACT SPOKE WITH DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS, AND THEY KNEW THAT TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM ONE HAS TO GO TO A REGULAR SPOKE WHEEL. BUT THEY WERE NOT WILLING TO DO THIS. HE EXPLAINED TO THEM THAT HE WILL DO WHATEVER HE COULD TO DO ABOUT THIS SITUATION BECAUSE THERE WERE A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH THIS MOTORCYCLE AND HE WANTED TO MAKE THEM AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. ORIGINALLY, DEA
DT: CONTACT STATES THAT THE HARLEY DAVIDSON V-ROD IS UNSTABLE BECAUSE OF THE WIND CURRENTS AND NORMAL DRIVING SPEED. THE CONTACT HAS TALKED TO HARLEY DAVIDSON, AND THEY SUGGESTED TO HIM TO GO AND BUY SPOKED WHEELS. *AK *SC THE SOLID WHEELS CREATED TOO MUCH SURFACE AREA FOR THE LIGHT FRONT END AND THEREFORE GREATLY AFFECTED BY CROSSWINDS AND VEHICULAR TURBULENCE. *JB
