More info in this thread.52Norm said:Can anyone tell me a little more about the recall, I have a 06 FXDI? Thanks
I got my notice yesterday as well. I'm also due for my 1000 mile service so I figured I'd have them do it at the same time. Thing is this isn't California, it's Indiana and there's 8 inches of snow and ice on the road so I'm not going anywhere. Even though they would presumeably come and pick it up like the notice says there's no point in getting the 1000 mile service done now when the bike will just sit in the garage for another 3 months with the fresh fluids in it. I think I'm just going to wait until March for them to do the recall and the service.Whiffleboy said:Got my recall notice today. I was happy to see the Moco says the dealership will pick-up/deliver free of charge. Whether or not the dealership will do so is a whole other story. Moot point for me since I'm due for my 1000mi and was planning on driving it down there anyways. I'll just have them fix it at the same time.

Might not be a quick fix. The other thread I linked to points out that to make the repairs they need to dig into the transmission and replace parts inside it. Took my dealer 3 hours to do the 1000 on my old Sporty. And I've heard it could take up to 5 hours to do the recall work.Whiffleboy said:Got my recall notice today.

Does this recall only apply to domestiC HDs? (US models).
I've got no information about build date, just a VIN. (looked through the frame, no sign of a build date).

Go visit your dealer and have him check the bike's VIN with HD.
Wow, I guess we all know how involved this recall is now! That looks like a LOT of work to do. Anyone else concerned that their local dealer might not be up to the task and screw it up or have leaks afterwards? I know I am. I'm real hesitant to even get this recall done.Dan B said:
