The SIP portal is now also available for free in the us. I registered as an independent operator. It required a 2 minute call with Harley, but they approved it and cited the European law as a reason they are doing it. Gets access to some of the things (including parts manuals) but not all (like service bulletins).

 

what did the call entail?

also, you can view all service bulletins (for free) on the NHTSA.gov website. here’s a link to 2017 Harley Touring models: https://www.nhtsa.gov/vehicle/2017/H...Communications
