Bought My First Harley - and it fell appart!

Looks like the temporary license plate is from last year, Feb 2022, Denton County HD (Corinth?). Is this the bike in Houston - which would not be a new one but a year old.

Had the same experience, engine failed at 1000 miles. Catastrophic failure, broken parts in the overhead valve section. Engine replaced on full warranty (took a good while) and no further issue for the next 3000 miles (so far). Running great.

So, there is hope - but we know that there were issues. And interesting enough that it was right at the same time that I bought mine, also in Feb 2022.
