Well, I’m not going to argue with you.
I only have 5000 miles on mine and it is in the shop for the suspension stop recall (done quickly and scheduled in a timely fashion) and for a wheel bearing “blow-out” on the drivers side front (NOT the boot). Parts on order for that fix as of last Thursday (07-23-20). The dealer hadn’t heard anything about this problem although I’ve seen it on a forum before and at first they couldn’t even find it ( I had cleaned the wheel rims with the entire cart before taking it in, duh). But when I insisted that they look again and closer to the wheel-axle center hub interface, they found it. Inspection of other front wheel did not reveal a problem. So now I have to wait for parts and repair; and hope that the right front is properly buttoned up!
This is my first real issue with the Speedster ( 2019 Venice), and the Venice being now three years old, one would hope that the new vehicle birthing pangs are being quelled.
Harley has had over a hundred years to sort out most of their issues, and a traditional Harley trike might be the best choice for you after all.
I hope you can get your Venice repaired and running soon enough to take advantage of the Harley sales going on now with an honestly good deal trade.
Nobody needs the kind of aggravation you have described.
Good luck.
