    My 2008 Sportster has been in the shop twice for fuel issues. First they replaced the fuel sensor then than entire fuel shell cell system due to a leak. However Sportster ‘ s are not listied for recall.

    I have a 2008 Custom Sporty.
    Not even 7 months old, I have thrown at least 35 fuses, all concerning my lights.
    Then, October 28, 2008 - I noticed my speedometer light is on!
    Brake lights working, horn working!
    WITHOUT A KEY NEAR THE BIKE!
    -Bike has been in 5 times on the fuses, “Cant locate any problem” is what I get.
    I called HD Customer Service this last time around, informed them of the 35+ fuses I have thrown, PLUS this new issue.
    My bike (once again!) is in the shop -with a “case number”
    This is my second HD, and prolly my last -IF they cant fix it.

Have something to share?
