Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Extreme heat coming from exhaust system which runs very close to my right leg. Not too noticeable while riding at highways speeds but when in traffic or at traffic lights it becomes unbearable. When I questioned the dealer about it they said its normal and this is the way they run, but... I could do something about it if I spend over $2000.00 to change over the exhaust to take out the catalytic converters. Its over $30,000.00 for this bike why do I have to spend more money to make it safe to ride??? Harley davidson knows there is a problem but wont fix it. …”
NHTSA complaint #10544568, filed 2013-09, 3,300 miles“Harley davidson trike right side manifold produces extreme heat. Will cause burns and harley davidson is aware of the problem. They will not replace it under warranty, it is an average of $2,000 to correct the defect. Must replace the exhaust manifold, exhaust pipes, air cleaner and re program to bring the heat level down a normal level.”
