| Description of the problem | Less then a month agao we bought a brand new harley davidson sportster 883l and it is already in the shop. The fuel pressure regulator seems to be bad on all the 2007 models, but they are still not issuing a recall. Harley seems well aware of the problem, but they are still selling the bike regardless without telling the customers about the ongoing problem. Parts are all back ordered for repairs so they leave you waiting with no bike. |
