Angry HD web page

I think you can go to Harley's web page and enter your VIN and it'll tell you if you're on the recall list.

Haven't their been a couple of posts about the new hydronic clutch having issues?
A friend told me about a friend of his that bought a 2014 at DelMarVa bike fest and had clutch issues on the way home!
Sad. You'd think by now they would have that **** figgered out!
How long have there been stock hydrolic clutches on Japanese bikes?!?!
C'mon Harley!! Get Your **** Together!

Coolant leaking yes, clutch problems, no.

The clutch is actually dangerous to some people. It is a good recall. I've been riding since I was 7 with a clutch but I have seen people just starting out that cant ride with a good clutch....
it says they will come pick it up. I need a 1000k service and it is raining, sounds like a good time to have it picked up LOL.
