I got to thinking about this when I was walking last night . There are or almost 50,000 members on this site . If our harley's were really much trouble you'd see all kinds of posts every day all day long but you really don't see that many having mechanical problems because of mfg. defects . Most are opinion posts , or service related . Really not that many where guys broke down because the bike is badly built . Like a lot of guys have said the 96 and I'm sure the 88 & evo are pretty bullet proof . I'm sure I could break anything if I really abused it bad . Sure you'll have something like a weight fly off a wheel probably because of bad adhesive , insidents like these are unfortunant but hey things happen . I've heard of people driving off the lot with a brand ned ford pickup and the tranny went out , doesn't mean all fords are bad . Anything mechanical can break at any given time . JMO
