Aussie Annie Posted February 7, 2013 #1 Posted February 7, 2013 Tech. at H-D dealer gave me the bad news today. Not only has it done a head gasket, the con rod don't move either!!!! I think it could be from when I had the trouble in the states in 2011. Warrantied till May so waiting to see what Harley Australia says
Phoneman1981 Posted February 7, 2013 #3 Posted February 7, 2013 Good luck with your repairs. Keep us posted.
PBJ Posted February 7, 2013 #4 Posted February 7, 2013 Now suddenly coming back to a Venture sound pretty good Huh?! LOL! Considering the heat you all get down there I"m surprised you went to the Harley but you never question Love right? Sorry to hear about the issues . I hope its all covered and you're back up and rolling soon.
ragtop69gs Posted February 7, 2013 #5 Posted February 7, 2013 Well... that's not good ! It's still under warranty so hopefully you'll be back up and running soon.
djh3 Posted February 7, 2013 #6 Posted February 7, 2013 If your troubles were documented when in the states atleast you may have a little fire power working in your favor to show something went wrong before.
