The problem

Harley-davidson is recalling certain model year 2010 fxdf motorcycles with fork leg assemblies (Lh p/n 48622-08, rh p/n 48623-08) manufactured from january 29 through february 9, 2010. These fork leg assemblies may have been incorrectly assembled using the wrong springs.

The risk

Motorcycles containing the wrong springs will have reduced suspension effectiveness which may result in reduced traction on irregular road surfaces, and will also have a different lean angle when parked on the side stand, possibly affecting parking stability. This condition may increase the risk of a crash.

The fix

Harley-davidson will notify owners and dealers will repair the affected motorcycles free of charge. The safety recall began on july 26, 2010. Owners may contact harley-davidson at 1-414-343-4056.
