What they said about Harleys was true! Factory RECALL!!!!

Excerpt from the letter HD sent me after I bought a 2010 this summer:

"On [my 2010 Road King Classic], 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 to the rider."

Just thought i'd share....

Safe rides ^_^

The best solution for this is to not wear your seat belt while riding
your Harley.  That way, if the bike collides hard enough for the tank
to break and catch fire, you'll already be sailing through the air,
far from the danger.

HTH  ;)
