Just bought my Buell 3 weeks ago at my local Harley/Buell Dealership! Last week they removed the Buell Sign and don't sell them anymore! I have a 2 year warranty. Are they still obligated to service my Buell and honor the warranty? |

Bend over, pucker up, and be like the rest of us. The life of a buell dealer.... |

They can service the bike if it's not a warranty issue, but they can't do warranty work.

Speak with the dealer. If they refuse then tell them you want reimbursement for the warrenty since they KNEW in advance when they sold you the bike they would be dropping the Buell line. You purchased the extended warrenty with the understanding that their dealership would be honoring it. |

Just for grins ask them what they'll give you on trade-in toward a Dyna or XL model bike. Try to keep your hands in your pockets when they give you the answer. |

Actually Wycked the new bikes come with 2yr warranties. Bluey - how close is the next dealership?

Yeah, I say investigate a new dealer (not that you have much choice). As far as service work, you can do that yourself as long as you keep the paperwork and you will not void your warranty. |

I read it as he got the 2 year warrenty extension, not the factory 2 year warrenty Josh. |

They'll service your Buell just as well now as they would have if they had left the sign up. Buy a Shop Manual and some tools, make friends with someone that know how to use them and enjoy the experience. |
