Harley recall

04-02-2008, 10:16 PM

Hi All
Anybody heard about the recall on 2007 Harleys? Turns out all 2007 model XL883, 883L, 883R, 1200R, XL50 and XL1200N and 2006 model 1200R and 2006/2007 XL1200N models have problems with the exhausts getting too hot and people getting burnt. the recall is for a set of heat shields to be fitted.

I got my letter today, deep joy, mind you, they are fitting some free chrome so i must not grumble i guess lol
