INSTRUMENT CLUSTER HOUSING ON 2001 HARLEY SPORTSTER XLS FAILED SPONTANEOUSLY AND COMPLETELY AT 13642 MILES AND 9 YEARS AND THE SPEEDO/TACH NEUTRAL LITE/SIGNAL INDICATOR BAR FLOPPED FORWARD ON TO THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. BOUGHT THE BIKE IN MARCH 2009, SO I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS THE FIRST FAILURE OR NOT. AM NOW LOOKING FOR AN AFTERMARKET REPLACEMENT AFTER READING HOW MANY OTHERS HAVE HAD THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. RODE 2 MILES HOME. *TR

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
