HARLEY DAVIDSON Certain early production 2023 FLHXSE and FLTRXSE model motorcycles (2023)
What the hazard is
A reduction in braking performance could increase the risk of an accident causing injury or death to rider and/or passenger, or other road users.
What to do
Owners of affected motorcycles can contact their nearest Harley-Davidson Australia dealer and arrange an appointment to have the motorcycle clamp inspected and repaired, free of charge.
Defect
Due to a manufacturing issue, the lower frame rail clamp may not have been adequately secured to the rear brake line allowing the line to contact the exhaust. If this occurs, the brake line could become damaged over time and rear brake fluid may leak causing a reduction in braking performance.
