RE: harley recall
I got this from Consumer Affairs.

Harley-Davidson is voluntarily recalling 13,400 Dyna series motorcycles because of a faulty transmission indicator.
The 2006 model year Dyna cycles have transmissions with a defect that may allow them to go into a false neutral position, even though the neutral indicator light is illuminated.
The motorcycle manufacturer said that it is providing owners with free pick-up and delivery as part of the Initial Care Program being rolled out for the 2006 Dyna motorcycles. The service will commence and recall kits will be available at dealerships beginning the week of Dec. 12.
Harley-Davidson estimates that the total costs to the company for the recall will be less than $5 million.
Harley-Davidson also said that it expects to meet its previously announced wholesale shipment target of 329,000 units for 2005.
Looking at this site kinda scares me. I think about all the traffic on the other side of the road traveling 60 mph and a closing speed of 120 mph and some of these cars have recalls...

RE: harley recall
I looked at the transmission for my Dyna when I got my manual.
The transmission has straight cut and helical cut gears. The gear cluster is massive.
Well here see for your self. The straight cut gears are used for 1st and 5th. Helical everwhere else but 6th. They lock the main drive gear to the mainshaft for a 1 to 1 in 6th gear.
There is suppose to be a large gear behind the snap ring pliers. None of the images in the manual showed it.
Pretty damn impressive to me.
