“2012 harley davidson Flstn with only 2,000 miles. Wire wheel spokes worked loose. Wheel wobbled. My harley was uncontrollable and not safe to ride. I had the spokes tightened up by the harley dealer, but at about 5,000 miles spokes came loose again. Same thing happened around 10,000. My harley is not safe to ride and the harley dealers are not willing to recognize the problem or fix or replace my wire wheels .”
