What NHTSA recorded

Harley-davidson is recalling certain model year 2011 softail motorcycles manufactured from june 7, 2010 through october 8, 2010.

Harley-davidson will notify owners and dealers will replace the bcm free of charge. The safety recall began on february 21, 2011. Owners may contact harley-davidson at 1-414-343-4056.
