0141 Tank Mounting Recall 2009-2010
Published by glider (Community Liaison)
Published date: Dec 3rd, 2009

Harley-Davidson Motor Company, Inc. has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists on certain model year 2009 and 2010 Touring family vehicles (including CVO touring and Trike products) built June 6, 2008 through November 19, 2009. On these vehicles, the fuel tank front mounts may distort in reaction to severe frame damage from a frontal collision. This condition may cause a fuel leak at the weld of the front bracket to the tunnel. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source may result in a fire, which could lead to injury or death of the rider.

We have voluntarily declared this a defect related to motor vehicle safety (Campaign 0141) to allow us to formally recall all affected motorcycles. The remedy is to install a left and right hand brace provided in the recall kit, between the front mounts and the frame. These braces are intended to reduce front mount distortion during the crash conditions described above. A service bulletin outlining the repair and credit procedure will follow within ten days. Based on the schedule our supplier has provided we expect to begin shipping repair kits on or before the week of December 14, 2009. Please reference the Service Bulletin for a detailed description of the defect.

Yes,just call your dealer and they will check your model against the recall notice.Sometimes they are a little slow in the mailings to alert owners

Good of the MoCo to do this on their own, w/o government involvement.

Silentflyer copy the pages of the recalls from the forum and take them to your dealer.If they still won't do anything contact the MOCO about them and find another dealer.
