Default 2014 ABS brakeline recall

Just a heads up, saw another poster on the Touring section mentioning this and see where it's on the HD website so thought I'd put it here on the Rushmore section.

Recall Notice: 0157NANRCL:2014 TOURING ABS BRAKELINE

Check your VIN to see if you fall under this.

Thanks for the heads up. This is what I copied from the HD site.

Just spoke to my dealership. They pull the tank and check a brake line to see if it is pinched or worn under the tank. If it is, they replace it. If it is not pinched or worn, they zip tie it out of the way.

I looked on the HD website and the only recall info I could find was the clutch recall from October of last year.

After selecting Owners tab and signing in to your profile it shows the recall, in addition to any closed recalls or product programs specific to your bike based on the VIN.

Just checked, my Limited bought in 8/2013 is listed. Guess I'll be calling the dealer on Monday.

Just called Mile High in Denver to check up on this. As stated already, some brake lines could be pinched under tank if routed improperly. Indication will be if it feels like front brake is dragging the bike when brake lever not engaged. Seat and tank are removed for inspection. If damaged they order part and will need to keep the bike for a couple days. I have not felt any drag so am going to wait for 5k service to get the inspection done....month or so more. Thx for the heads up. Mile High didn't even know about it until I called; new recall. Said they haven't seen any bikes w/ this problem yet either. One of those better safe than sorry recalls sounds like.
