Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Company is recalling certain model year 2014 FLHTCU, FLHTK, FLHTP, FLHX, FLHXS, FLHTKSE, and FLHRSE motorcycles manufactured May 3, 2013, through Oct. 14, 2013. The clutch master cylinder may allow air into the clutch system. Additionally, Harley-Davidson is recalling certain model year 2014 FLHTCUTG, FXSBE, and FLSTNSE motorcycles manufactured May 3, 2013, through Oct. 14, 2013. The affected motorcycles may have been built with an incorrect clutch release plate. Either condition may prevent the clutch from disengaging.
If the clutch does not disengage, the rider may have difficulty slowing or stopping the motorcycle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Harley-Davidson has already notified owners, and dealers will rebuild the clutch master cylinder and install the proper clutch release plate, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began in late October 2013. Harley-Davidson’s recall numbers are 0153 and 0154. Owners may contact Harley-Davidson at (800) 258-2464.
