Owner report 10886225 · 2016-07-20 (July 20, 2016)

THERE IS A CONTINUOUS TAPPING NOISE COMING FROM THE MOTOR. IT STARTS AS SOON AS THE ENGINE IS STARTED AND LASTS APPROXIMATELY 2 MILES WHILE RIDING. IT SOUNDS TO BE THE LIFTERS. THE MOTORCYCLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS FOR THE SAME COMPLAINT WITHOUT IT BEING FIXED. THE DEALER ADVISED THEY CONTACTED HARLEY-DAVIDSON TECH SERVICE BUT THERE SEEMS TO BE NO "FIX" TO THE PROBLEM.
