Tap a recall to see the problem, the risk and the fix.
Engine and engine cooling:exhaust system:manifold/header/muffler/tail pipe
Problem: Certain motorcycles were built with a condition whereby the pant leg of some riders can have direct contact with the exhaust pipe.
Risk: This condition could cause the pant leg to char or burn, which could lead to the possibility of injury to the rider.
Fix: Dealers will add a new exhaust shield which provides additional coverage ofthe exhaust pipe. The recall began on july 12, 2007. Owners may contact harley-davidson at 1-414-343-4056.
Tires
Problem: Certain sportster and dyna model motorcycles were built with an incorrect front tire.
Risk: This incorrect tire could cause performance issues, which could result in a crash.
Fix: Dealers will inspect the front tire and replace it if necessary. The recall began on march 5, 2007. Owners may contact harley-davidson at 1-414-343-4056.
Electrical system:alternator/generator/regulator
Problem: On certain motorcycles, as a result of a greater body thickness than used in previous model years, the voltage regulator may contact the front fender under certain conditions. In some cases this contact may allow the front fender to catch on the top side of the regulator body which could impede the operator's ability to steer the vehicle.
Risk: This could result in a crash which could cause injury or death to the rider.
Fix: On motorcycles which do not have accessory engine guards, dealers will install an intermediate mounting bracket that will relocate the voltage regulator to a position which provides more clearance from the front fender. On vehicles with an accessory engine guards, dealers will install the thinnner dimension voltage regulator to avoide the front fender clearance problem. The recall began on january 22, 2007. A second customer letter reflecting the above remedy will be sent to owners on march 16, 2007. Owners may contact harley-davidson at 1-414-343-4056.
