I had my Hyd Clutch recall taken care of last week, less than a half hour, personally I'm glad they are on top of these problems.

Had mine done Wednesday. Took about an hour, not sure how much of that time was actually working on the machine. I'm glad they found it, some of the road experiences with clutch failure sound pretty scary!

I've been riding Harleys for 40 years also and I've definitely had to deal with a lot more BS than this. You should consider yourself fortunate. Or did you just feel the need to spout off?

Not to worry. I'm not sure if the 2015s are included in the recall but if they are the dealer will take care of it before you take delivery. Congrats on your new ride!

I had mine done yesterday. It took less than an hour and while they had it back there they updated my software to the newest version and set my running lights so I can keep them on all the time if I want to (on bright or dim). It may just be me, but I seem to be able to find neutral easier now than before.
