I bought a new 2006 custom 'assembled' 280 Highroller chopper from American Perfromance Cycles (APC). It has been in the shop 14 months of the 33 months of ownership and I have logged a measley, trouble=prone 3,500 miles. I have had the oil pump replaced, the stater, the battery, the whole frigging 124 ci S&S engine, the oil cooler replacxed and finally a re-paint of the entire frame & sheet metal parts.
What a nightmare! I think I now understand the difference between an assembled bike vs. a custom bike build.
