Risk. FUEL LEAKAGE IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE CAN RESULT IN A FIRE.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL REMOVE THE ACCESSORY CUSTOM HORN COVER AND REPLACE IT WITH THE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT HORN COVER. IF THE ORIGINAL HORN COVER IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE, IT WILL BE REPLACED. THE FUEL LINE WILL ALSO BE INSPECTED AND REPLACED, IF NECESSARY. OWNERS WILL BE REIMBURSED FOR THE COST OF THE ACCESSORY CUSTOM HORN COVER.

HARLEY DAVIDSON HORN DOESN'T WORK. THE HORN WAS REPLACED AT 1000 MILES. STILL DOESN'T WORK. IT SOUNDS LIKE A WOUNDED DUCK. HARLEY DEALER SAYS THE HORN IS FINE AND THAT YOU MUST BE RUNNING THE ENGINE AT 2000 RPM FOR THE HORN TO WORK. IT WORKED FINE WHEN PURCHASED. I SAY ITS A DEFECT IN MANUFACTURING. IF YOU NEED THE HORN YOU MUST BE DRIVING AT 2000 RPM OR BETTER. MAKES NO SENSE. YOU MUST INVESTIGATE THIS PROBLEM. SOMEONE WILL GET HURT. *NM

2004 FLHTCUI HARLEY-DAVIDSON HORN ISSUE. DOES NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY. IT APPEARS THAT NOT ENOUGH POWER IS GETTING TO THE HORN AND IT BECOMES A 50-50 CHANCE THAT THE HORN MIGHT WORK. TOOK IT TO THE HD SHOP 3 TIMES AND ALL 3 TIMES THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. THE SECOND TIME I EVEN PAID FOR A NEW HORN AS TO ELIMINATE ONE POSSIBLE ITEM. SAME ISSUE WITH NEW HORN. THE 3RD TIME THE HD SHOP SAID THAT HARLEY-DAVIDSON SAID THAT THE BIKE NEEDS TO BE RUNNING FOR THE HORN TO WORK CORRECTLY. AGAIN THE SHOP COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. EACH TIME I TOOK THE BIKE HOME FROM THE SHOP, THE HORN ONLY WORKED 50% OF THE TIME. HOT, COLD,DRY, WET, LOW SPEED, HIGH SPEED...IT DOESN'T MATTER. THIS STARTED AROUND JUNE, 2005. BIKE IS STILL IN WARRANTY. *NM
