My Feb. 2013 car has let me down twice. Both times 100's of miles from home once in France.

Compensator let go would you believe at the factory for its first service and then at Classic LeMans voltage regulator, replaced at a local Harley dealership.

That was within the first year of ownership. Since then all the issues have been sorted out and it has been 100% reliable.

In fact I would quite happily jump in it this morning without any prep. and drive 1000 miles without any hesitation.
