Consumer Description

2007 HARLEY DAVIDSON FLHTCUI, EXPERIENCING INTENSE HEAT FROM THE RIGHT REAR CYLINDER, WHEN THE BIKE IS STOPPED IN TRAFFIC IT IS UNBEARABLE, I AM FEARFUL IT WILL BURN THE UNDERSIDE OF MY RIGHT THIGH. DISCUSSED WITH THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD, THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE. IT WAS SUGGESTED THAT I REMOVE THE LOWER FAIRINGS, BUT THIS HAD NO EFFECT ON THE HEAT WHEN THE BIKE WAS STOPPED. AS I SAID, I AM AFRAID I WILL BE BURNED BY THIS. *NM
