I've had mine replaced twice......so far. The fork lock is just a complete cheap quality total POS! Recall is for bikes built before FEB 15! Anybody have an issue on a bike built after the recall date?

 

Is it a recall or an "upgrade letter"?

 

Not right in front of me but if memory serves, it's a voluntary recall and they made sure to point out that it is not a safety issue.

 

Got my idiot letter on the recall last week. Have not had any problems with it yet.

 

Got mine yesterday. And I too thought they were saying "END USER Stupidity ".

No problems for me yet. But I'm scheduling my 5000 today so I'll tell them I got the letter.

 

I got mine today also, but I have not had any problems with end user stupidity.

 

I just got my letter today. I've never had an issue with mine.

Can I assume they are just changing the internal parts on the mechanism and that it looks the same and uses the same key?

Has anyone that had it done noticed any difference with the new one?

This keeps getting worse:

First the mirrors
then the motor mounts
then the injectors
and now the ignition switch...

What's next?

 

Had them do the install at my 2500 service. It's a .4 hour job and the lock operates smoother and it seems that it's a lot easier to get the forks locked now. And yes the lock looks the same and I have the same keys.

 

Stopped by my dealer yesterday to get my daughter a helmet and get in touch with the service manager about the lock recall and he acted like he didn't know what I was talking about. He said he would have to get in touch with Harley to see what they are doing about the recall. I find it hard to believe that we are getting our letters and yet the dealers know nothing about this. He said he would have to order new lock kits and would call me when they come in.
