“2015 harley davidson xg 750. Problem with neutral light flashing. While in neutral. Dealer replaced neutral switch. Now the light is inoperative. Other harley dealers informed me that they have seen the light flash while in drive gears. Also my transmission has developed a chatter while shifting when fully warmed up. Has been at dealer for 2 weeks.”
NHTSA complaint #11021217, filed 2017-09, 10,000 miles“I experienced a lag and leap issue. I was riding my bike with about 83 miles on the tank of gas and out of nowhere it would pretend to stall and then take off. Would continually do this in the lower gears. Added a new tank of gas and it went away. Got to the same mileage and happened all over again. Harley replaced my fuel pump but it was very scary and I am worried it may happen again.”
NHTSA complaint #10721773, filed 2015-05, 198 miles“While at highway speed, 65mph, front belt pulley bolt broke causing pulley to dislodge. Causes belt to wrap around shaft and jam locking rear wheel. Luckily the pulley did not fall off belt guard and hit myself or any other vehicles. This has not been adjusted due to not needing new belt, and was at same specs from factory. Upon research, found multiple owners same year having same failures. So far no one has wrecked or caused injury, however had I been inexperienced I likely would have. …”
