Component: Tires
NHTSA
Recall Number: 07V025000
Summary: Certain Sportster and Dyna model
motorcycles were built with an incorrect front tire. This incorrect tire could
cause performance issues, which could result in a crash.
Remedy: Dealers
will inspect the front tire and replace if necessary. Models:
2007 Sportster (XL1200
and XL883 Models)
Number potentially involved: 18,758
Component:
Voltage Regulator
NHTSA Recall Number:
06V476000
Summary: As a result of greater body thickness than in previous
model years, the voltage regulator may contact the front fender under certain
conditions. In some cases, this may allow the front fender to catch on the top
side of the regulator body, which could impede the operator's ability to steer
the vehicle. This could result in a crash that could cause injury or death to
the rider.
Remedy: Dealers will intall an intermediate mounting bracket
that relocates the voltage regulator to a position that provides more clearance
from the fender. Owners not receiving this free remedies should contact Harley-Davidson
at 414-343-4056. | | Models:
2005-2007 Dyna Wide Glide (FXDWG)
Number
potentially involved: 10,397
Component: Handlebar
Wiring
NHTSA Recall Number: 06V474000
Summary:
The internally wired handlebars have a potential to crack at the hole where the
wires exit the bars between the handlebar clamps. Should these cracks progress
to the point of breaking the handlebar into two pieces a loss of control could
result, increasing the risk of a crash that could cause injury or death to the
rider.
Remedy: Dealers will replace the handlebar with one that has
both a greater wall thickness and a wire-exit hole with a shape that reduces stress
concentration. |
