Rear pulley bearing gone, 2012 TG

[nevtat]

Took TG into stealer to have front and rear suspension modifications installed. They called back to say the rear drive pulley bearing was shot. Upon teardown they found other damage: differential assembly, sprocket, both bearings, isolators, etc. The good news is it's all covered under warranty. They know of another 2012 with the same issue, both TGs at about 20K miles. I never noticed any problems while riding, it was smooth and ran very well.

Local dealer service manager told me today they had another 2012 Triglide with a trashed diff/bearing. this makes three such repairs in 4 months at only one dealership. they researched VINs and found they were built with six months of each other. However, there was not a common day of the week. The one common factor was mileage. All were within 600 miles of being at 20,000 miles. Since the MOCO tracks such repairs, I hope they can determine what is happening.
