Dear S&S,
On 07/13/2021 Bloody Knuckle cycle in Mesa AZ installed my new S&S124.
Right away it had a massive blow by...covering my bags. Blood installed a vented dipstick and an elaborate breather head breather.
On 10/05/21 it started to leak oil just after 1600 miles. (Blow by)
On 04/20/22 It started leaking again after 900 miles.(Rocker box)
On 05/25/22 Another leak.(Rocker Box)
09/01/22 Oil Pan Leak
On 11/10/22 Another leak(Rocker box)
Now 12/04/22 it is leaking again...which this time is the base gasket.
My bike's name is Raven 159,417 miles. I am a fucked up vet. My wife considers this bike a medical necessity as do I and has paid over $2k to replace the gaskets and leaks which sucks coming from such a highly touted company and new engine.
Bloody is a great shop and they are busy so these leaks have also cost me over 3 months without my bike. Which is literally life altering to me. and it is not pretty.
Even with the bike away for 3 months I've put 55 miles a day on this thing. I ride every day.
I've talked to your representative, Bob, to get the ball rolling.
How do I trust this engine...for long trips....i know i have more gasket warranty left but what happens in 3 more months when it starts to leak again....i'M just screwed into paying for more labor!?
When is it considered a lemon after so many failures and I get sent a new engine that performs as advertised?
I need a timely response to this...i need to know if i can take my bike in to get fixed or not?
Thank you,
Crush Estrada
again today the base casket is not leaking!
Called n Talked to Bob...what a nice A_hole he is...total POS!
Do not buy S$S engines YOU will Regret it!!
