Consumer Description

STOCK COMPENSATOR ON 2008 ULTRA CLASSIC FAILED AND NOW HAVE TO PAY FOR REPLACEMENT TO PUT THE UPGRADED ONE IN. LUCKY I WAS NOT TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OR I WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. HARLEY IS AWARE THERE IS A PROBLEM AND REFUSE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THE STOCK COMPENSATOR IS INFERIOR TO THE UPGRADE AND HARLEY NOW PUTS THE UPGRADE STOCK ON THE 2011 BIKES. I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE REPLACED AT NOT COST SINCE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
