THE LEFT REAR TAILLIGHT IS RANDOMLY BLOWING ON MY 2012 BLACKLINE IN VERY SHORT INTERVALS. SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE BIKE I HAVE GONE THROUGH THREE BULBS IN ABOUT 150 MILES.I CANNOT TELL WHAT SPEED THIS IS HAPPENING AT. I HAVE HEARD OF NO CORRECTIVE ACTION ON THE BIKE FROM HARLEY DAVIDSON. *TR
THE RUNNING LIGHTS DIE. IN 2000 MILES I HAVE HAD 4 LIGHTS REPLACED. AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT AND WORSE AT NIGHT I CAN SUDDENLY NOT HAVE A RUNNING LIGHT. CARS MAY HIT ME IF THEY DON'T SEE ME. *TR
