Get it done. After mine was done I got a letter from harley saying the complete clutch system was covered for another 2 years outside the Warranty period.

 

Same for me. So there is a benefit, other than safety related, to having the recall done.

 

I rode 3 hours to have my bike tuned. I have a dealer 4 miles from my house but my local riding group recommends the other dealership. Ask around, read reviews about your dealership vs others. Take a trip. I received exceptional service and am more than pleased with what I had done away from home. But go ahead and get the recall done.

 

I am surprised that this is even a question. I did the recall and noticed a BIG difference. and you get a free clutch oil replacement too? its really worth doing.

 

I (the OP) took the bike in for the clutch recall and bag pin recall today.
Seemed to go well - surprised that it took a total of just 30-40 minutes.

Glad to have it done. Might even be easier to find neutral now - maybe just my imagination.

 

Pay attention to the reservoir over the next few days. Mine started leaking after I had the recall done and ate the paint right off.

 

You should have your clutch updated. It will be almost 100% that the seals on the piston will break and you will have some big issues. The new seals and piston are different and much better design

 

I would not think twice. Get it done. Don't take the chance. A local police department recently had one of their bikes hit the back of a pick up truck while it was in gear but the clutch was engaged. It is not worth the chance as far as I am concerned.

 

At least one!

Yeah, I agree with everything you say.

My '15 Limited showed the classic symptoms at around 500 miles. I just flushed about a quart of Valvoline Synthetic (actually, ALL brake fluid is "synthetic") DOT3/4 through mine and the issue was permanently solved. Took all of about 15-20 minutes.

Did the bag fastener recall myself, too, along with all of the required periodic maintenance and inspections outlined in the service manual checklist.

There's no way any brain-dead H-D "Tech" is ever gonna touch my bike - do it yourself, it's the only way to know that the work was actually done, and done right!!

 

The actual issue that caused the recall was that the hacks that assembled the clutch master cylinder unit didn't thoroughly remove all of the final-cleaning solution from the main casting before assembly and the residual solvent reacted with the clutch fluid and caused it to form bubbles.

Nothing to do with the seals or other internal parts.
