Idk if everyone has heard about it yet, but we recently got it approved (I work at San Diego Harley Davidson) for either the last, or the 3rd, week of September (i forget which off the top of my head and today is my day off).

curious what Chris thinks about what Harley says as far as the break in procedure recommendations. Dealer told me no same speed riding, no cruise control for the first 300 miles. The manual says 500. Would love to see a video of Chris talking about this and maybe even doing a little breakdown of your motor to see what if any good or bad things he finds.

[@expert_fretwork]

when I bought my 2021 Street Bob, I was told the same thing, but I also bought it from a dealership about 2 hours away from where I lived because a friend worked there and hooked me up. I told them during the sale that I was going to be driving it down the highway for 2 hours, and they said as long as I don't get it consistently above 3000rpms it should be fine.

OK, I gotta ask, When I was shopping my poor butt for a bagger putt, I watched a lot of Indian vids, too. It's where I first saw Amanda. Is she still associated with Lloyd's and the Wisconsin dealer? Just curious, I almost went for a Cheiftan and was leaning towards a Challenger, but ultimately bought a slightly used '22 Street Glide Special for REAL decent price. I still like the Indians, but love my Harleys.

[@mxdude5461]

it doesn't take a 1000 miles to brake in an engine, it only takes about 50 miles to seat the rings, and that's it your done. I have built all types of engines and race for over 20 years.

[@skylerbentley8713]

It actually takes 500-600. Im sure the manufacturer and engineer who designed and made this particular bike knows more then you. No bike break in is 50 miles, you must be smoking something good. Your engine probably ticks like a b. Some people are just impatient and try to justify their stupid actions. Its not just about the rings but so that everything goes together smoothly, gears etc. you probably have had to tale your bike to get “warranty” work a BUNCH of times. 🤡🤣

[@skylerbentley8713]

Ever done your first oil change and seen metal shavings? Thats why you do a proper break in and take it slow until your first service at 1000

[@PitbullSoco]

Any professional engine builder will tell you the break in is complete within the first 50-100 miles depending on the builder. The only thing you're really "breaking in" is marrying the pistons rings to the cylinder. I dont think I'd ever want to run the original oil for 1000 miles. I trust people who build engines for a living more than i trust a manufacturer that has a vested interest in fixing and making money in the future on repairs of what they're selling you. Just my take🤷‍♂️

[@skylerbentley8713]

Ever heard of esp. it usually cost 50 dollars to have EVERYTHING done to the bike if something was to break. I think i trust the people who designed it and not some dude who built carbed bikes back in the 80’s. Manufactures and engineers know more, why would they want to replace something for FREE under warranty? Why would they want to LOSE money? You literally are just trying to justify your poor patience and impulse control. Im sorry your engine ticks 🤣

[@skylerbentley8713]

Fyi have you ever seen metal shavings while doing an oil change? Thats why you WAIT and take it easy. Other then that the piston rings is true! You still have to break in the rest of the engine/drivetrain, clutch and everything. If he was any professional he would have a job working for one of the manufactures, probably would be a supervisor id he was so great. But no he’s rebuilding the local neighborhood engines, at LOW wages for a reason. Probably out of a shed. He doesnt know what he is talking about, thats why hes a small town unCERITFIED mechanic.

[@PitbullSoco]

@skylerbentley8713 my engine is perfectly fine. I work on, maintain and know my engine inside and out. You think warranties are there to help you...now that's hilarious lol. Engineers get things to work for the cheapest they can...pushed by the manufacturers who limit their budget on how they can design something lol. So yeah...I trust someone who builds engines professionally more than a manufacturer who has a vested interest in getting you back in the door to have shit fixed once it fails lol

[@skylerbentley8713]

@@PitbullSoco no warranty prevent lemons ya goofball. If they was doing it to try and make more money/hinder the rider. They wouldnt even offer a warranty. Or they would tell ya your engine is fine to trash at 50 miles break in. Make what your saying make any sense, use your noggin. They dont want to replace something for free, so yea it is there for YOU THE RIDER. My grandpaw had his engine blow on his ram, got it replaced for free, not once but twice. Shows how much you know.
