Broken Frame Letter

Well, I admit there have been times when I've misinterpreted something but I don't think that's the case here.
Your statement
is strictly your opinion sir and not necessarily a statement of fact!
If the MoCo's QC programs were that great, the OP wouldn't have wound up with a cracked, or incompletely welded frame in the first place! Someone at the factory certainly dropped the ball in this case and there's no guaranty that won't happen again.
If San Jose Harley has competent, factory trained mechanics, there's no reason to believe that they can't successfully replace the defective frame and leave the owner with a safe reliable ride.
As I was trying to say in the first place, there aren't any 100% guaranty's either way so get over that. You can nitpick semantics all you want but the bottom line is, he has to give Harley an honest chance to make this right, which it sounds like they're trying to do. How about waiting to see how it turns out!
Ride Safe,
Steve R.

Have you talked to Bill (@SJH)? What does he say about all this. They've done frame-ups, collision repair etc. Which tech is on it?
Have you talked to an attorney re lemon laws and/or your other legal options?
I'd be curious to know the outcome.

New Bike? Lemon Law?
WOW!!!
Go buy two torque wrenches (an inch pound and a foot pound) and simply check all the critical fasteners on your bike when u get it back, and again at... let's say 10,000 miles?
Sound familiar? That is the NORMAL service routine.
So... now that your robot welder went on strike??? How can ANY of you ever trust buying a MOCO product again? Seriously?
This is a killer thread!
I'd make a wager that the 'get a new bike' crowd and the 'bike will kill my daughter' crowd NEVER spun one wrench ever in life! I find the statements that the techs are morons demeaning and insulting. Just like ALL firefighters kill their dogs with rifles in their basements?(an Ohio sensation)!
THAT is NOT true and neither is it true that mechanics are azzholes. It's the Suits that are the azzholes.
Get a off shore bike, PLEASE!!!
