False neutrals are common on many motorcycles.

The defect may allow the motorcycles to go into a false neutral position even though the neutral indicator light is illuminated, it said.

NINO? Neutral In Name Only?

Not surprising from a company that sells more t-shirts and genuine Harley induced crap than they do bikes.

Funny that Baker et al have been doing six speed boxes for a while that HD gets caught this way. Anyone know if the Motor Company builds the boxes themselfs or who they buy 'em from?

I knew there was a reason I got rid of that stock a few months back.

The Harley haters are out in force.

You sound like a bunch of whiney Democrats. A good company that makes a good product is doing well and you just can't stand it.

I'll bet you hate WalMart too. Typical.

All the boneheads bashing Harley's, are ignorant of two things.

First, Harley-Davidson motorcycles are just as reliable as anything else these days, and are just having a hard time living down the old AMF days. I know, I've got an 04 XL1200 that has over 15000 miles, gets 50-70mpg and not a lick of trouble yet.

Second, and most important, bikers are by far CONSERVATIVE!

"If that happens, the transmission could engage into first or second gear unexpectedly," Harley-Davidson spokesman Bob Klein said Wednesday."

It sounds like they should go back to the old suicide shifter on the side of the tank, like they had in the mid 40's/ sarc.

Is this the first recall? I rode Harleys from 1970 – about 1998. Never saw a recall – or had a problem.
More Jap Crap propaganda?
