Andrew's Milwaukee-Eight Street Glide: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Andrew has ridden a lot of miles and had some serious saddle time with H-D's newest Big twin, the Milwaukee-Eight. After doing several performance modifications and going on a few long trips he has experienced just about everything good and bad with this new motor.

    Really enjoyed this video. Have always appreciated Andrew's opinions in past videos, when test riding and reviewing other models. It was nice hearing his story and impressions of this bike. Good to hear how your dealership and the motor company took care of him as he dealt with the oil pump issues. This was an excellent soft sales pitch for the M8's, Harley in general, but especially your dealership. The reputation you guys have in the industry didn't just happen, like pulling a prize from a box of crackerjacks. Hard earned and well deserved. Also … to Andrew, beautiful bike !! I love the way you have made it your own. Excellent job.

Found your future employee passing through my home town Missoula with his bro & dad on a new Street Glide when trouble struck. Glad Grizzly HD helped make good on his MT trip, but you guys in CA really laid it down! Thrilled to see millenials get the bug. Riding since I was ten when my dad gave me my first bike-myself & both my brothers. I've passed it to my four sons. Learned something new with every video I watched. Thankyou. When in doubt, wheelie out!

    I was looking at a few different manufactures of motorcycles for my last purchase and still stayed with HD because of the number of dealerships around that I could always take it too even going across country. I know some have had bad experiences with a few HD dealerships but my experience has been great through the years. I had a few issues with my 2017 SGS and the dealership I do business with jumped on it and got the issues resolved asap. Not only the two year warranty for new bikes but got the extended as well because I intend to have mine for several years. Great that Matt posted a truthful, unbiased video of a buyers experience.

I added a few things like a passenger back rest, foot pegs on engine guards, and LED headlamps with turn signals so i don't have to bother with changing bulbs. Keep it simple and stock less problems.

    Thanks for the vid. Honest as usual which I appreciate 👍 I got my MY15 Fat Bob a few months ago with 7600k's on the clock, within 4 weeks of purchase, the rear wheel bearing blew out and the VSS sensor died. Not a good start !!!! Bearings got replaced, but had more issues soon after because there was a tiny burr on my rear wheel hub from the original bearing blow out which caused the new bearings to start failing. Anyways, the crew at the dealership looked after me real good and hopefully the "kinks"have been ironed out, I still really love my bike!!!! Even with this happening, it's been AWESOME. Funny thing is I named it "Eleanor" (Yeah I know, naming a bike !) and she lived up to her name 😂😂🤣🤣

    My new 17 Ultra Limited had a stage 3 fitted within a couple of months of buying it. I ran it in according to HD and had the oil changed on time. 250 miles later it burnt almost all the oil in the sump. No warning light just a horrible smell of burnt oil. The bike went back to the dealer and was stripped down, all the internals were useless and the oil pump was the problem. 6 weeks later I got my bike returned. Another 1000 miles of running in and now runs fine. Not what I expect from a motorcycle. However, Fair play to HD for sorting it out. 🇬🇧

    Awesome story and testament. I am all the way in Morgan Hill CA and currently waiting for a property sale in escrow to close so I can purchase a new Street Glide. I have been watching videos on KZread for months now taking notes and building every little detail of my new bike in my head. Like Andrew, I had a ton of bikes back in the day ranging from RD's, Kawi 750 Tripple, KZ 1000, several Ninja's, just to name a few and my last bike was a 1200 Sportster. When I was 26yrs old my Sportster was stolen in Fresno CA (arm pit of a town, sorry, but it its) and shortly after my first son was born so I never got another bike because father hood had many priorities $$$. But now at age 55 I am going to purchase my dream bike so it will be a very special occasion, and where I purchase my bike will also be a big part of that special moment. Out of all the videos I have watched it is clear to me that you guys know what you are doing and you are so focused and dedicated to educating riders so that they can get the most out of their bike and rider experience. That is why I have decided I am going to drive all the way down to Baldwin Park CA and purchase my bike at Laidlaw. Nice job Matt and Andrew and I will see you guys soon!

    I just went through the same thing with my 2018RGS. Left for my annual west trip with 700 miles on bike - 1K service performed at that time. 5-600 miles into the trip notice bike low on power and then oil pushing out my breathers and with lower end wet sumping. Ran oil level on the low side the rest of the 4000 miles that week and dropped off the bike to the dealer the day after I returned home. 6 weeks later bike was back home with a Stage 3 upgrade with me paying for parts. I have about 50 miles on the bike since the work and oil is once again pushing out my breathers all over my bike. Pissed to say the least! 25 year Harley diehard owning more bikes than I can remember. Traded my bulletproof 2009 TC for this 2018 oiler.

    That is a ton of money in the 17'. I bought mine in aug 17'. It is still stock engine. I got all the warranties I could get and with a good price out the door, it was still $$$. The stories I hear on the tube is that the engines that have different stages done on them are having problems. I have not put but 2500 miles on mine (not by choice, the nature of my career) It is making me think twice about going with more power. Could some of this be on the mechanic's doing the work? I love my bike, it is a super comfy bike with everything I need so far. There is also bad reviews of the stage 2 boom, but like Andrew, my stage 2 stepped the sound up pretty good. Great vid, good luck with ur ride Andrew.

They called HD and confirmed production date and replaced the pump. Tech said that the check valves were sticking on these pumps and supplying low pressure to the engine. Mine must have unstuck when I stopped the engine.

    This kills me, I feel the pain and a little buyers remorse. I got a 2017 Road Glide, and started blacking it out too. Ton of money in, and they bring out the 18s already blacked out. I too had my engine blown, around $9k miles, and HD shipped in a crate motor to replace it (warranty). Ever since then, I've been having idle issues, and now this last weekend a check engine light turns out to be something with the front O2 sensor. Said mine was running lean though. I'll say that the local dealers have been proactive though. They called me a few weeks ago to have my oil changed for free, to check for any particles. Turns out, they didn't swap the oil cooler when they replaced the engine, so last week they called me back (which is when I found out why they wanted to do the oil change in the first place) and said they want me back in to get that replaced also under warranty. I'm just concerned about this particular bike in general now. Probably just my bad luck, but I feel like I got a lemon.

    So I just bought a used 2017. Is there anything I need to do in terms of determining the oil pump? Warranty will be out in July '19.

    I find that the extended warranty may be necessary. Both my harleys had issues, one nearly catastrophic(wheel bearing exploded due to factory install negligence), no motor issues... yet. As to extended warranty, YMMV. Personally, when my 2 year is up I will extend despite plans to replace front fork springs for progressive cartridge and rear shocks (2K17 FLSTF). I will disclose that my Harley always prioritized warranty issues regardless of the severity; good people.

    Very nice Andrew!! Matt do you recommend an oil pump upgrade on the early M8's?? I have a August 17 RGS with 16,000 miles and want to go Stage 3 or 4 and think it may be a good idea to swap it out. Also have a S/E autotuner that i will install. Andrew bring up a great point on the exhaust and performance issues.....any thought on a 2 into 1 into 2 header ? Thanks for a great video.

    If you get a stage 3-4 kit then definitely ask the dealer if you’re getting the latest pump. If you’re doing that then just keep the stock header.

    I have had a similar experience. First stage IV done in India on a Milwaukee 8 (MY 18 Roadking). Dealership forgot to change the oil pump which was supposed to be changed with the stage upgrade. First ride after the break in... knocking sound and the bike refused to crank after abt 150 miles... no new engine but after a lot of mail exchanges the dealership changed piston & rings, front n rear cylinders, cam and main bearing, fly wheel assembly and the oil pump.... post the install... bike runs great except their is occasional missing at sudden accelerations and decel pops... I have the pro street tuner and the smart tune pro. Is there a way to check if the smart tube pro is enabled... working properly as I thought the job was to ensure that the bike adjusts on a real time basis??

    Thanks for this great review. Lots of good information here. Which Custom Dynamics front turn signals did you upgrade to? The light output is impressive. I’m looking to upgrade the led turn signals for a 2018 CVO Road Glide and I’m curious if these will work. Thanks for any info or suggestions.

    I love my 2018 CVO Road Glide but I find it a little bit detuned and I want to put a stage 1 kit on it to wake it up a bit. I had a 2018 CVO Street Glide that sumped at 1200 kms and it ended up requiring a new 117 motor so I'm a little nervous about modifying my new CVO Road Glide in any way. Harley covered the motor under warranty but I'm a little bit nervous now about modifying anything on my new bike now that I know the 117's are prone to sumping. My dealer has given me conflicting information whether or not Harley will warranty another bad motor for me if I do a stage 1 on the Road Glide. What do you think?

    I have the same exact bike but without the navigation. They didn't have it in stock. I even have the same matte black paint so I change to the docking station backrest and all the pedals grips shift everything which was close to four grand. I took my bike out for the first long ride from Malden Massachusetts to the kangamangus highway. I didn't have any engine light go on. It backfired once or twice and you know I had power shift a couple times after the thousand miles I got on it you know. I burnt the tire a little bit coming out of first and second gear, nothing crazy. I only power shifted it then maybe 3 time but after the long day of riding I get back home it's dark I don't check the bike but I could smell steel when I was on the highway and it wasn't a good smell so I knew something was off you know. If you have owned a bike of any kind you smell the exhaust and you know what's up. I don't have any stages, nothing that's a stock engine but needless to say down the bottom of the piston it started to leak oil. I immediately bring it back to the dealership. I didn't even drive it. I had it picked up cuz I had the five year maintenance plan which cost me more money too at the time so not only did I do all of that I paid cash for it. As I researched the bike I found out the thing called sump pumping which basically puts out too much oil on the top and not enough oils coming in at the bottom of the pump which creates pressure in the top of the piston and makes a froth of oil and air and bubbles on the top. So it blew out the bottom seal so I bring it back to Boston Harley-Davidson in Revere Massachusetts. They've had my bike for about I don't know close to a month they really wouldn't talk to me about what they were doing what they were going to do and what needed to be done. Which I was real disappointed because when I drive the bike I'm betting my life on it. I have covid crap come up, after being sick a couple times and a few more bumps but I still have the bike. I am riding it now as I rode around the city the last week I heard it backfire. So after watching this video I am going to call Boston Harley-Davidson and ask them what I should do with the bike. Since they fixed it I have not put any miles on the bike so to speak of less than 500. I'm not thinking should be backfiring right now I went threw the break in period. I changed the oil every time the bike goes to the shop. So now the warranty has run out and I don't know what's going to come up. But I am glad I watched this video, I'm not glad you went through maybe the same thing brother. The bike wasn't cheap but at the end of the day I'm the most important thing, the customer. So if you have anything to add LMK @ jgcityline@yahoo.com

    Great video Matt. Ive got my 17 Road Glide Special and have been paying attention to the Oil Issuses the guys have been having. My plan is to put the Stage 4 kit in, and have been thinking about putting the stage 3 kit cam in it? I like the torque band with it. The auto tuner that Harley Davidson has, is this better than the Vance & Hines Fuel Pack 3? Appreciate this content you provide, love to see how you folks took care of him...that's great service! As usual, straight forward and honest video! Thanks.
