Harley-Davidson Touring description

This bike has 56,500 miles on it and it recently got the 50,000 mile service. I bought it from the original owner in August of 2013 and I rode it for 2.5 years and most of the mileage was highway mileage. The 110 motor is noticeable and really moves this bike along down the road. The Grapevine & El Cajon Pass are no problem for this bike. It will pull up big steep hills with two people no problem.

I made some modifications to the bars and seat so that it fits a shorter rider better. The CVO package comes with lots of extras so I didnt need to any. 

I have replaced the battery and the new one is under warranty. I also have a battery tender which is a must have for bigger bikes. I put a new latch on the tourpack because the old catch was kind of rinky dink. I also installed new latches. The power locks on the tourpack and saddle bags work fine. I have soft bags that fit inside and I also have the soft protector things that go in there. 


Stereo: The 2008 has a problem with the stereo and the stereo basically sits on these bolts and bounces down the road. Eventually the stereo went out and I paid to have it fixed. I also modified the stock stereo to have an iphone lightning plug on it and I have a chrome mount on my bars that fits an iphone 5. The stereo is good to go and I got the bolts a little bigger so it doesn't bounce around like it did. When I had the stereo out of the bike I pulled out the 4 speakers and I installed all new kicker speakers. The sound is crisper and louder now.

Tue, 26 Mar 2013

A new survey conducted by the Consumer Reports National Research Center finds BMW and Harley-Davidson  owners are much more likely to report major problems with their motorcycles than owners of Honda, Kawasaki and Yamaha motorcycles. The survey, which will appear on the April 2013 issue of Consumer Reports, says one in three BMW owners reported experiencing a major problem with their bikes in the last four years. Harley-Davidson owners were slightly better, with one in four reporting serious issues.
