Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Recall: Oil Leak and Resulting Fire Could Result in Personal Injury or Death
Harley-Davidson is recalling 52,240 MY 2007 FLSTC, FLSTC Shrine, FLSTF, FLSTF Shrine, FLSTN, FLSTSC, FXST, FXSTB, FXSTC, FXSTD, and FXSTSEE Softail motorcycles. These motorcycles were built with a condition that permits the positive battery cable to contact a weld bead on the oil tank. This may cause the weld bead to abrade through the insulation on the cable and cause an electrical short from the battery through the oil tank and oil lines. This could lead to an oil leak and/or possible fire, which could result in injury or death to the rider. Dealers will install a battery caddy that will protect the cable and ensure proper cable routing. This recall is expected to begin during May 2007.
Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Recall: Incorrect Front Tire
Harley-Davidson is recalling 614 MY 2007 Sportster (XL883, XL883L, XL883R, XL1200L, XL1200R, XL50) and Dyna (FXD, FXDB, FXDC, FXDL) model motorcycles built with an incorrect front tire. This incorrect tire could cause performance issues, which could result in a crash. Dealers will inspect the front tire and replace it if necessary. The recall is expected to begin on or about March 5, 2007.
Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Recall: Handle Bar Could Break in Two
Harley-Davidson is recalling 10,397 MY 2006-2007 FXDWGI and FXDWG motorcycles. The internally wired handlebars have a potential to crack at the hole where the wires exit the handlebars between the handlebar clamps. Should these cracks progress to the point of breaking the handlebar into two pieces, a loss of control could result increasing the risk of a crash which could cause injury or death to the rider. Dealers will replace the handlebar with one with a greater wall thickness and with a wire exit hole that has a shape that reduces stress concentration. Harley-Davidson has not yet provided an owner notification schedule.
Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Recall: Steering Failure
Harley-Davidson is recalling 18,758 MY 2007 XL1200C, XL1200L, XL1200R, XL50, XL883, XL883C, XL883L, and XL883R 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. This could result in a crash which could cause injury or death to the rider. Dealers will install an intermediate mounting bracket that will relocate the voltage regulator to a position which provides more clearance from the front fender. Harley-Davidson has not yet provided an owner notification schedule.
Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Recall: Fire Hazard
Harley-Davidson is recalling 19,921 MY 2006 Dyna motorcycles. A battery caddy bolt may loosen under normal riding conditions. Should this occur, the bolt can back out which allows the battery to shift position and then hold the battery in a position which may allow the battery terminals to contact the metal battery caddy cover and abrade through the positive terminal protective boot. If this occurs, the battery can short against the cover, causing sparks and possibly a fire. Dealers will replace the center battery caddy bolt. The recall was expected to begin during November 2006.
