Example complaints
Brakes: “While riding on a flat state road (md rt 124) I went to use the front brake by pulling in the brake lever and it suddenly went all the way to the throttle/hand grip. I thankfully still had rear brake and was able to slow down and stop. Upon releasing the lever and pulling it again the brake pumped back up. However, once released the lever went right back to the throttle again. So essentially I had no function in the front brakes. I shut off the motorcycle, turned ignition switch on and as normal the ABS light started to flash. …”
NHTSA complaint #11340250, filed 2020-07, 55,700 milesElectrical system: “While driving down the highway, my check engine and battery light came on. I noticed my voltage meter at 11 volts. I had the bike towed to the harley dealer and they replaced my voltage regulator. This was a big recall in 2012 and many owners of 2013 are reporting the same issue. I'm afraid once my warranty runs out, ill be liable for replacing it again.”
