What are the defects?
Due to a manufacturing issue, the rear shock absorber adjuster mounting tab may fracture. As a result, the shock absorber adjuster could loosen and contact the rear tyre causing a loss of air pressure.
What are the hazards?
A sudden loss of air pressure in tyre whilst riding may result in loss of vehicle control increasing the risk of an accident, causing injury or death to rider and/or passenger and other road users.
What should consumers do?
Owners of affected motorcycles can contact their nearest Harley-Davidson Australia dealer and arrange an appointment to have the motorcycle inspected and if necessary repaired, free of charge.
