Recall 0173. Some leaking slave cylinders found, causing loss of clutch control. Replacing the slave cylinder (with new secondary actuator 37200131B) should correct. No word if it's going to include the plastic oil deflector 36300026, but it should. That would update the 17 & 18 models to 19 specs.
so now we have a pretty good idea how many 17/18 cvo, trike, touring and some 17 softtails about 238,300 wordwide as stated by the journal , I cant wait for the bean counters to extrapolate through Statistical Analysis the percent of sumpers and transfers .popcorn ready . 4th clutch issue recall in 5 years at least there trying lmao

Interesting....... I was in for service at my dealer yesterday and I asked about any recalls and was told “none”. Guess, it was issued today (the day after)?
Glad they are covering it, but man so inconvient. Dont want to risk not doing it, but thinking it will wait till my next service. The service department is going to be backed up for awhile now i am sure.

swung by on the way home to schedule ours..no surprise they don't have the parts, etc. yet but let them know we want to be on the list asap, but yeah, going to do it with my upcoming 30K service and wife's whenever they can

I went by the dealer yesterday because I found out about the recall in a thread in the touring forum, Dealerships just received their notification yesterday morning (or at least the one I visited did). Part kits for the correction won't ship to dealers until Nov 5th, you can call/visit your dealer now and they can run the VIN to see if you are affected, if so they can put you on their list to call when parts arrive. My 17 RGU was affected, my guess is its likely pretty much all 17/18 Touring bikes.
In the mean time monitor your fluid level in the clutch master cylinder to make sure the level does not drop down enough to pull air into the circuit if it is leaking at the actuator
