PATRIK STOLLARZ/AFP/Getty Images(NEW YORK) — Harley-Davidson is voluntarily recalling certain 2014 Touring motorcycles because of an issue with the hydraulic clutch system that could be dangerous.
“Some of these motorcycles may exhibit a condition in which the hydraulic clutch system may lose the ability to generate enough lift to disengage the clutch,” the company said. “If the clutch does not disengage as intended, the rider may have difficulty slowing or stopping the motorcycle, which could result in an accident.”
The recall includes a “Do Not Ride” notice to owners until the motorcycles are repaired.
“The recalls affect 25,185 Touring motorcycles,” the company said, “models FLHTCU, FLHTK, FLHTP, FLHX, FLHXS, FLHTKSE and FLHRSE, and 3,861 Softail CVOs and Trikes, models FLHTCUTG, FXSBSE and FLSTNSE, built between May 3, 2013, and Oct. 14, 2013.”
