We have problems with both front and rear brakes on wifes 2013 TG with 2400 miles (of which 550 are trips to dealer..!!!). It's not my wife - she knows how to brake.
Rear brakes. We had dealer disconnect the parking brake at 1000 miles. There is now horrible amount of brake dust on wheels and tires and brakes are hot - smell them constantly when she rides. We are not sure but do not remember this issue prior to disconnecting parking brake. Dealer is ordering rotors and pads but at this time does not know what the problem is.
Front brakes. From Day 1 there has been a grinding noise in front when pushing the bike around in our garage. It also pushes much harder than my 2012. Both rotors show uneven wear marks. There is wide dark streak on 180 degrees of both rotors as if rotors / pads are not lined up properly. Dealer determined yesterday that right rotor is warped but said left is OK. Ordering rotor for right side and pads but I'm not convinced the left side is OK.
I also posted earlier that from Day 1 there is a loud clicking noise in rear end when turning right. Sounds like a dog clicking on a sprocket. HD said to "monitor". Great response..!! Well we've done that and its still there. Spoke to another dealer who had seen this several times and said its a flat spot on a wheel bearing. Dealer has new bearings for both sides and we will see.
I would appreciate any feedback or experiences with the brake problems from you good folks.
Also have to get new wheels on rear since original had black mark flaws under the clear coat. Dealer has the wheels.
So needless to say we are not having a pleasant new ownership experience. Will have at least 3 more 110 mile trips to dealer and back. My confidence level of these issues getting resolved permanently is not very high.
