I HAVE A 2018 STREET GLIDE AND HAD THE CLUTCH ACTUATOR RECALL WORK PERFORMED AT THE DEALER THIS PAST WINTER. IT FAILED SUNDAY AND I WAS BROKE DOWN. HARLEY DEALER CLAIMED THEY REPLACED IT TODAY ALL WAS WELL COME GET THE BIKE.. AS I WAS LEAVING THE DEALER WITH MY SO CALLED FIXED MOTORCYCLE I GOT OF THE HIGHWAY ON AN OFF RAMP THE CLUTCH LEVER HAD NO RESISTANCE AND DID NOT RESPOND AS I WAS TRYING TO GEAR DOWN FOR MY ANTICIPATED DEPARTURE FROM THE HWY! THIS COULD HAVE KILLED ME !! DANGEROUS, TRAFFIC WAS HEAVY THREE CARS AT THE INTERSECTION IN FRONT OF ME AND I WAS JUST ABLE TO AVOID COLLISION BY SLAMMING MY BREAKS AND TRY TOO STALL ENGINE AND TURN IT OFF AT SAME TIME. VERY DANGEROUS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HARLEY-DAVIDSON STREET GLIDE SPECANX (FLHX). THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER: 0173 (HYDRAULIC CLUTCH SYSTEM); HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR AS THE RECALL NOTICE WAS RECEIVED OVER A YEAR AGO. THE DEALER (HARLEY-DAVIDSON OF CINCINNATI, 1799 TENNESSEE AVE, CINCINNATI, OH 45229, (513) 641-1188) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED SEVERAL TIMES AND WAS UNABLE TO CONFIRM WHEN THE PARTS WERE TO BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

TRANSMISSION IS LOSING OIL INTO PRIMARY. IT OVER FILLS THE PRIMARY WHILE DRAINING THE TRANSMISSION OF NEEDED LUBRICATION. AN OVERFILLED PRIMARY CAN CAUSE HARD SHIFTS, AND COULD POTENTIALLY DAMAGE THE CLUTCH.
