Harley Rant

Frustrated with Harley Davidson's recall solution to my 2023 Street Glide CVO

[@MATTTHEGREETER]

I feel like there are enough warnings in the manual and whatnot that they shouldn't have to put a governor on the engines. I know there are very good reasons for a governor, IF you're a rider that has limited self control and know you ride too fast, but I feel like once you buy the machine and sign all the papers, it should be on the rider! Let me make the decision, not the manufacturer. Also, I ride a Dyna. They ALL wobble a bit haha. I call it the Dyna-Dance. I don't like it, but I pretty much know what speeds/wind-conditions to avoid. I've been triple digits and been fine, then a different day I'm at 75 and getting squirrelly. Keeps me on my toes and shakes the rust off the ol' Bug Smasher! Keep up the good work man!

Agreed

Yeah I really don't get the idea of throwing a governor on there. I know on other models if you get a non-HD tuner you can remove that "safety" feature but then you have to deal with the warranty etc. I agree with Matt, that choice should be left to us as the end user, especially if you're buying a CVO model with a higher output, bigger engine.

Agreed, Thank you for the comment.

Im over Harley tbh you can find cheaper bikes that are more reliable, just not worth it just to say you have a Harley.
