Consumer Description

2007 HD,FLHTC EXPERIENCING TRANSMISSION WHINE IN 5TH GEAR VERY LOUD ,AND CLANKING NOISE AT ALL TIMES FROM 5TH GEAR AND SIXTH GEAR. HD CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS NO HELP NOR DEALER ALTHOUGH MANY OTHER NEW OWNERS EXPERIENCING EXACT CONDITIONS. DEALER AND FACTORY SAY ITS NORMAL. OTHERS HAVE NO SYMPTOMS. NO FAILURE OR ACCIDENTS YET. VERY LOUD NOISE FROM A TRANSMISSIONS IS NOT NORMAL. HARLEY DAVIDSON HAS A PROBLEM AND IT NEEDS TO FIXED ASAP. I RIDE 15000 MILES A YEAR AND DO NOT -TRUST THIS NEW MOTORCYCLE TO PERFORM ITS MISSION OF TOURING. THIS BIKE HAS VERY POOR FUEL MILEAGE LESS THAN HALF AS STATED IN THE SPECS. SEVERE HOT RUNNING MOTOR, PIPES GLOW RED IN TRAFFIC AND THE HEAT IS TERRIBLE. I HAVE OWNED SEVERAL OTHER NEW HARLEYS AND NONE OF THEM DID THIS. *NM
