What NHTSA recorded

On certain motorcycles, the long pivot bolt may bend or break during normal operation of the motorcycle.

Possible consequence

This could potentially cause the rear fender to abrade against the rear tire while the motorcycle is being driven. This condition could occur without any prior warning and could result in a crash.

Remedy

Dealers will replace the long pivot bolt and, if necessary, straighten the rear frame side panel. The short left side pivot bolt and pivot shaft may also be replaced free of charge. The recall began on november 1, 2006. Owners may contact big dog at 316-267-9121.
