To be honest6 I think a lot of it is a luck of the draw. Also the fact the oil was restricted by the trash in the screens. . Found the same problem in BMWs, & Moto Guzzis.
I've been thinking about trading my 06 Royal Star in for a touring but these stories I run into, as this one, has got me a little concerned.
Royal Star's are very reliable, which I love.
Tell me otherwise?
Owning a Rocket is like a good marriage.. sure ya gotta work at it & sometimes you get mad at each other, but in the end , you wouldn't trade her in for anything!ldgit:
