Another 09 Dyna recall
Subject: Safety Recall Campaign 0137
Harley-Davidson Motor Company, Inc. has decided that a defect relating to motor vehicle safety exists on certain 2009 model year Dyna FXD, FXDF, FXDC, FXDL and FXDB motorcycles built July 24, 2008 through August 28, 2008. These 2009 model motorcycles have a jiffy stand Spring Anchor P/N 47318-98, which may have been built with a defective weld that may allow the jiffy stand assembly to not retract as intended. This condition could lead to a crash which could cause injury or death to the rider.
We have voluntarily declared this a defect related to motor vehicle safety (Campaign 0137) to allow us to formally recall all affected motorcycles. The remedy is to remove the original jiffy stand spring anchor and replace with the new spring anchor provided in our recall kit part number 94720. A service bulletin outlining the repair and credit procedure will follow within two weeks. Based on the schedule our supplier has provided we expect to begin shipping repair kits on or before the week of December 22, 2008. Please reference the Service Bulletin for a detailed description of the defect.
In the interest of the safety of our mutual customers and as required by law, you may sell but NOT DELIVER any affected motorcycles to your customers until the remedy is completed. Please refer to h-dnet.com on the Service Page/Safety and Product Campaign/Open Safety Campaign Instructions and the Safety Campaign and Open VIN Lists in the Service Toolbox for an updated list of affected VINs for this recall. Select the appropriate campaign number link (0137) to view any outstanding vehicles involved.
In accordance with Federal regulations administered by NHTSA, Harley-Davidson Motor Company, Inc. will provide notice to all owners of record of affected products with direction to bring the vehicle in for the recall service.

Back in the day (1972-79), I was a certified mechanic so I know the value of service bullettens and recall notices. Where does HD publish them?

Rolla,
I hope you're kidding on waiting on this one. If the pin breaks loose, and the spings should come off, the jiffy stand can pogo you in a corner. I've seen it happen, and it ain't pretty!
I'm not preaching, I'm just saying, worst case scenario, could be ugly.
