Description of the problem	I noticed the engine oil light flickering after the engine is warmed up. I decided to talk to my locl harley dealership and they informed me that it was a known issue and could cause me to wreck if the engine seized. As a quality engineer by trade, i investigated the issue and found similar complaints from others on various harley forums. The issue is the triple sprocket bolt backs out due to poor design and causes low oil pressure condition and overheating. If the engine seized on one of these bikes while riding, this could cause the rear tire to skid resulting in a fatal crash. If there was no crash and you were able to save yourself from falling, you would have over a $6000 repair to replace the engine. I have found multiple claims online for this issue and would venture to say, harley davidson is allowing a dangerous known issue happen.
