    Secondary Clutch Actuator sounds like a fancy name for slave cylinder, and definitely will require bleeding. They will replace the fluid with new I would think.

    I checked my brake fluid level prior to my ride today & it was in limits & did not look bad at all, though it was definitely darker that new DOT 4. I turned my pleasure ride/lunch into a ride to my dealer.

    I do have some updated info from my chosen dealer, Doc's HD in STL.

    As others stated, they said the initial recall replacement parts will start arriving at dealerships 11/5/2018.

    They were told they would receive recall repair kits weekly until all are fixed. I am scheduled to get the fix on Wednesday, November 14 in the morning. I told them the only thing that would hamper this if there is ice/freezing rain or snow.

    They will flush the system while in there & I am glad, as I don't have to mess with it & getting that cover off. I will do the front & rear brakes later this year & will then be on a schedule to flush all brake fluid lines every even year.

    As far as my ride today ( 50 miles), my Freewheeler is still running like a dream & improving with every ride, If that's possible. I am impressed with the M8, as far as torque & smoothness, after the minor adjustments I made, which were a K&N replacement air filter in the stock box & an external breather system of my own design.

    Good info Michael

    I am wondering if this new slave cylinder has a smaller piston

    If it does the tranny oil will be easier to drop down and flow back to the gears

    This could help the oil migration

    Michael, did your dealer give you an estimate of time involved to perform recall work?

    Default clutch

    Talked to my dealer Friday. Asked him about a clutch recall on the 2019 TG. Nothing yet, but since they use the same parts as the last couple years, expect one. His words
    2019 TriGlide, Twisted Cherry. Khrome Werks 2+2 bars, Eagle Lights front and rear
    DK foot board extensions, rear bearing retainer plates, tourpack relocation kit and oil filter relocation kit
    with cooler, powder coate tod wheels, Progressive 444 shocks,. More

    Here is what I gleamed from the NHSTA

    Year: 2017 Make: Harley-Davidson Model: Freewheeler

    Number of Open Recalls: 1

    NHTSA Recall Number: opens new window takes away from VIN lookup section> Not Available Recall Date: October 18, 2018

    Manufacturer Recall Number: 0173


    SUMMARY:

    The hydraulic clutch system with secondary clutch actuator part numbers 37200131and 37200131A on the subject motorcycles may exhibit an internal leak of fluid past the secondary clutch actuator piston/seal. If this leak continues for an extended period, the clutch master cylinder reservoir could lose enough fluid toexpose the hydraulic clutch circuit to air, which may result in the inability togenerate enough lift to disengage the clutch. SAFETY RISK:

    If this condition remains undetected, it could lead to a loss of control of the vehicle when started in gear, first shifted into gear, or coming to a stop. REMEDY:

    Owners of affected motorcycles will be asked to arrange service with an authorized Harley-Davidson dealer, who will confirm that the motorcycle is covered by this recall. If covered, the dealer will install a new secondary actuator piston assembly from the recall kit, P/N 91500093. This service will beprovided at no charge to the customer.

    RECALL STATUS:

    Recall INCOMPLETE

    MANUFACTURER NOTES:

    NA

    If the manufacturer has failed or is unable to remedy this safety recall for your vehicle in a timely manner, please contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at: 1-888-327-4236 or TTY: 1-800-424-9153 or file an online complaint with NHTSA.

    My 17 is on the list,this will make the 8th issue I have had with this bike.I was thinking of buying a new one in 2020 but HD is going to have to get their act together before I buy another new one.The service guy i spoke to today said he had a question for the HD rep.If the brake fluid is leaking into the trans and the trans is migrating into the primary what is brake fluid doing to the clutches?

    You might want to look up your State's Lemon Laws and see if they apply to your current trike? These problems have been all over the place in terms of who gets affected and who doesn't. I sort of took a leap of faith and only having one problem with my 2017 trike which was a front O2 sensor with no migration or other issues, I decided that maybe the MOCO is getting it together and I got a beautiful Scorched Orange/Black Denim 2019. I hope I didn't open a can of worms?

    Like Jack said, they estimate 1 hour.

    The service manual states you need to loosen the pipes from the cylinder heads to get the cover off, but most say you can just loosen the heat shields. I saw it done on the Fix My Hog website, but it was not on a trike, it was an M8 touring model.

    If the cover comes off easy, the rest of the recall is a breeze.

    I doubt it I've had a 14 Ultra Limited, 16 triglide and now a 18 triglide - all of them same clutch strength. start working on your muscles

    I checked with my dealer last Friday, and was told by the service writers that the part were to be shipped by Harley on the 15 of November, So to check with them around Thanksgiving for repair dates.

    Checked the website and mine is on recall. Checked with the dealer and they said parts would be in about Nov. 5. They said they didn't know how many they might get but put me on a list and said they would give me a call.

    Default Tri Glide recall

    I have 2018 Tri Glide clutch is on recall. But also per dealer fluid from transmission leaked over into the primary also with the clutch recall. and a primary leak at the same time. The dealer didn't think it was a big deal about losing fluid from transmission. Has anyone else had a similar problem? Bike has been at the shop for two weeks.
