On 21-October-2022, Bikernet Blog updated the fans of the Motorcycle Company  about handlebar recalls on Nightster models. Now another recall is revealed. Click to see previous handlebar post. by Janaki Jitchotvisut from https://www.rideapart.com Nearly 200,000 Harley Touring Models Could Have Brake Light Issue On affected bikes and trikes, rear brake lights could light up even when riders are not braking. On October 21, 2022, Harley-Davidson issued a safety recall for 199,419 different 2019 through 2022 Trike and CVO Trike and 2020 through 2022 Touring and CVO Touring motorcycles. The fault involves a software issue that determines when the rear brake lights on these bikes are illuminated. In certain cases, the rear brake lights may stay lit up even if the rider has not activated the brakes and is not braking at that time. This condition could cause vehicles following those bikes to misjudge when a bike in front of them is actually braking, thus increasing the risk of a crash. A total of 31,572 2019 through 2022 Trike and CVO Trikes with VINS ranging between 1HD1MAF14KB850024 and 1HD1MCP19NB854018 (not sequential), manufactured between the dates of July 6, 2018 and June 23, 2022, are involved in this recall.

Evidence of a Harley-Davidson Pan America 975 Emerges

A smaller, more affordable Pan America makes a lot of sense if Harley-Davidson wants to expand its share of the ADV market. by Dennis Chung from https://www.motorcycle.com Earlier this year, signs of a Pan America 975 were mistakenly mentioned in an official Harley-Davidson web page for an accessory locking fuel cap. Up until shortly after our article went live, the page listed the fuel cap as being compatible with the RA1250 (Pan America 1250) and RA1250S (Pan America 1250 Special) as well as two unannounced models: the RA975 and RA965S, which we assumed to be Pan America models powered by the 975cc version of the Revolution Max engine, like the one equipped on the Nightster. Motorcycle.com has now obtained further evidence of the existence of middleweight versions of Harley-Davidson’s adventure-tourer, once again from Harley itself, as well as the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The proof comes via official installation instructions for a pair of accessory mirrors designed for Revolution Max models. The ’66 Collection Round Mirrors and Empire Mirrors (available in black anodized or anodized with machine-milled highlights) are designed to fit all RevMax models, including the Pan America 1250, Pan America 1250 Special, Sportster S, and Nightster. For most markets, including the U.S., the installation instructions specify additional steps for “for all models except RA1250S”, which is the model code for the Pan America 1250 Special. These added steps are necessary because the non-Pan America models (i.e. the Sportster S and Nightster) come with bar-end mirrors and require installing handlebar mounts for the accessory mirrors. The instructions for a few other markets, however, provide the same additional steps “for all models except RA1250S and RA975S”. Both model codes are listed in the instructions for Bulgaria, Croatia, Estonia, Greece, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Slovenia, and Ukraine. We’ve gone through

by Rogue “I recently bought a new 2022 Harley-Davidson Ultra Limited. So far, I like the motorcycle, but… I rode so long using a Klock Flare Windshield on my previous motorcycle, I missed it. I needed to quickly install one on my new Ultra. I never thought about the height differences in the fairings with and without vents.” Click Here to Read this Photo Feature and Ride Report. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Get Product Reviews, Tips and News — simply Click & Subscribe to Bikernet’s FREE Weekly Newsletter.

Old Harley Clutch Wars

General Posts / By

Never Give Up! By Bandit with photos by Buck Lovell “This tech will be amazing. I built this 1950 Panhead during the Covid thing, so we called it the Pandemic. We fought with a magneto for a year and finally slipped in a used automatic advance distributor and it started first kick, with a Mike Egan R.I.P. rebuilt M-35 Linkert. We ran into another issue. The clutch dragged. Who the fuck knows? After working on old Harley 4-speed clutches for over 50 years, I was blown away to find out so much about the bastards.” READ This epic Tech with Photos only on Bikernet.com, Click Here… * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Find more Tech for your free use by visiting Techs & Builds Section — Click Here.
