I HAVE A 2006 VRSCD HARLEY DAVIDSON NIGHT ROD MOTORCYCLE. MY FUEL GAUGE NO LONGER WORKS AS OF MONDAY AUGUST 9, 2010. I HAVE HAD SPORADIC READINGS WHERE THE GAUGE WILL DROP TO A NO GAS READING TO A FULL GAS READING TO AN ACTUAL READING TO AN UN ACTUAL READING. THE GAUGE HAS NEVER STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY UNTIL YESTERDAY, MORE THAN 5 YEARS AFTER THE WARRANTY PERIOD EXPIRED. I HAVE TRIED TURNING THE BIKE ON AND OFF AND I GET A ZERO GAS READING AND ZERO GAS MOVEMENT FROM THE GAUGE. AGAIN, IT NO LONGER WORKS AND IS STUCK AT THE SAME LEVEL. MANY, MANY V-ROD OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED OF THIS FAILURE AND SOME HAVE HAD THE GAUGES REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY (SOME MORE THAN ONCE) AND OTHERS HAVE PAID FOR THE REPAIR ONLY TO HAVE ANOTHER FAILURE DOWN THE ROAD. I AM NOT READY TO PAY FOR A REPAIR TO SUCH A VALUABLE AND CRITICAL COMPONENT TO A MOTORCYCLE. I BELIEVE KNOWING HOW MUCH GAS ACTUALLY RESIDES IN ONE'S MOTORCYCLE OR AUTOMOBILE FOR THAT MATTER, SHOULD BE A RIGHT. THIS SHOULD BE A MASSIVE RECALL FOR ALL OWNERS OF THESE MODELS OF MOTORCYCLES. *TR
