Safety Recall Campaign 0134 models: FLHP, FLHPI, FLHTP, FLHTPI, FLHPE and FLHPEI
February 29, 2008
Subject: Safety Recall Campaign 0134
Harley-Davidson Motor Company, Inc. has decided that a defect relating to motor vehicle safety may exist on certain 2005 through 2007 police and escort motorcycles (models: FLHP, FLHPI, FLHTP, FLHTPI, FLHPE and FLHPEI) built February 25, 2004 through July 1, 2007. These motorcycles are equipped with anti-lock brake systems (ABS), in which inconsistencies in the routing of the brake lines can cause abrasion of the brake lines and hoses. In some cases this condition has caused brake fluid leaks. Loss of brake fluid could lead to loss of brake function, which could lead to a crash resulting in injury or death. We have voluntarily declared this a defect related to motor vehicle safety (Campaign 0134) to allow us to formally recall all affected motorcycles. The remedy is to inspect brake line 40632-05/06 and 40610-05 for abrasion and replace if necessary. The remedy also includes installing the brake line retention and clutch cable positioning devices provided in the recall kit to prevent future abrasion to the brake lines. A service bulletin outlining the repair and credit procedure will follow within two weeks and repair kits will begin shipping the week of April 7, 2008. Please reference the Service Bulletin for a detailed description of the defect.
