From what I have heard Harley Davidson Motors has had an ongoing program to recover any motorcycle built by them that has certain design issues. Once purchased the bikes are being shipped to a deposal area located not far from their facility. At present there is over 50 people outside and in the US methodically recovering all bike that have a tank shifter, manual spark advance, manual throttle return, foot clutch, right side foot shifter and certain early model twin cams with a cam timing sensor under the timer cover. Has anyone heard about this?
