HD Clutch Recall 2018...Over 200,000 Affected!

[MDO]

Just a quick update after the cluth recall was completed.

I got a 75 mile ride in today & could actually feel my fingers ( 60 & sunny).

The cluth operation is definately improved & if I had to put a number on it, I would say the pull is reduced 10-15%.

Also, easier to hold in at an extended stop. I'm happy.

Just got my trike back today from having the clutch recall done. Can't say I really noticed any difference. I didn't have any problems with the clutch before I brought it in. At least it's done.

If it was not for the recall I would not take mine in

I have bleed mine 2 times and am having no problems

I felt the same way, but after getting it done I thought that unit/seal could fail at any time. With age, the failure rate could increase dramatically.

In my opinion , I'm giving the MoCo props on this one in the way they handled this, speed wise.

I have waited 6 months for some auto safety recalls. Some wait years.

HD handles a lot wrong, but I think this problem was handled well. Thats as long as the fix holds up!

This past Saturday my dealer dropped off my neighbor's TriGlide that was in for the recall and my Sportster that was in for 5,000 mile service. He then loaded up my wife's FreeWheeler for the recall service.

Recall done in an hour + a good wash job

Well, what do you think? Did you get enough of a ride in to form an opinion ?

The pull seems lighter, other than that no big change cept my trike is clean

My dealer always washes bikes in for service

When I got there there was 2 other trikes waiting for the same service

All 3 trikes went in @ the same time, All 3 came out @ the same time

Pretty good service IMO

Good to hear Jack. Yes, the washing after service is a nice touch the good dealers do. Doc's HD in St. Louis does that, I have not had service at my other local dealerships.

Ours came home today washed and shining.
