Okay - ya missed my original point. Someone walks in that MAY have one of the bad units and wants 'em to tear it down and look "just in case". If it ain't got one of the bad units, MoCo ain't gonna pay 'em for "checking" unless authorized by a recall letter.&nbsp\\;

We simply run the VIN to determine recall eligibility.

If you type in your vin and get this on the MOCO site they already know your part is defective.....
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;


No need to wait for anything in the Mail.... To be honest I don't think they know what bikes need it and which don't





2008 ELECTRA GLIDE STANDARD (EFI) - FLHT
VIN: 1HD1FV4118Y62xxxx

Approximate Mileage: 10020

There are one or more open safety recalls or product improvement campaigns on your vehicle. The following list contains the campaign number and a brief description:

Recall Notice: 0135: 2008 FL TOURING FILTER SHELL

We strongly urge you to take your motorcycle to your dealer to have the appropriate service performed as soon as possible. Should you choose to ride your motorcycle prior to this service, we urge you to be aware of this condition. Some product campaigns may have expired and you may have to pay for the service. Please see your local Harley-Davidson dealer for further details.
