The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission has issued a recall on a range of Harley-Davidson motorcycles.
A faulty oil line clamp is the cause of the recall for MY17 Harley-Davidson Touring Models.
With the clamp not properly installed, the oil line may become detached and cause a sudden loss of engine oil resulting in the oil leaking onto the rear tyre.
This in turn could result in a loss of control and potentially lead to a crash.
HD models affected include:
- FLHX
- FLHXS
- FLTRX
- FLTRXS
- FLHTCU
- FLHR
- FLHRC
- FLHRXS
- FLHP
- FLHTP
Harley-Davidson will contact owners by mail with instructions to contact an approved dealer for an inspection and replacement.
