Hi Guys, I have a 1125R 08 would you be able to name all recalls and upgrades that I should have done? My gas light goes on and off all the time, looks like there is a recall but the HD Mancuso dealer tells me that it does not happen when they have it. Anyway, after many problems with Mancuso, to my opinion, they are pretty bad... up my fork, got the bike scratched after maintenance etc... NOT FUN and they tell you" SIR" all the time but behind....yeah right. they just you up. Anyway back to the subject, I dont trust them So if you could tell me what recall(s) should I expect? Thanks a lot, Max Realtor In Houston |

You have GOT to be kidding me. You can't even use the word "d-e-b-r-i-s" without this forum software replacing the middle letters with a link to Erik Buell Racing?? This is a little out of control, don't you think?? |

Max, Stay away from Mancuso, go down to Angleton and work with Goe's, I know they are a long drive but you get the service you deserve. donald |

I agree with the ebr thing. I can't even get in this forum on my iPhone 4 sometimes because of the hyperlinks. It's a big turnoff!! |
