Details

What's wrong: There is a possible loose connection between the harness connector and the electronic harness controller.

Why it matters: This condition may cause the motorcycle to experience intermittent loss of electrical power to various components, which can lead to, among other things, a loss of headlamp function or a vehicle stall, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Big dog will notify owners and dealers will repair the motorcycles free of charge. The safety recall began on May 24, 2010.
