Another HD Recall
Just in case anyone missed it, another HD recall.
Harley-Davidson is recalling more than 4,500 FXDL Dyna Low Rider bikes worldwide because engine vibration can turn the switches from "on" to "accessory."
The recall covers motorcycles from the 2014 ½ model year, including more than 3,300 in the U.S. If the motorcycles have been modified to rev higher than 5,600 RPMs, an engine mount bracket can vibrate excessively, causing the problem.
If the switch goes to "accessory," the engine can shut off while being driven and potentially cause a crash. The company said there have been no crashes or injuries reported from the problem.
Dealers will replace the bracket assembly and ignition switch **** for free. Harley began notifying owners in late July.
