Hey Tim, no disrespect with last post just trying to calm **** down,that being said I'm tuned into what mister DH Dealer said,I'm still believing that recall wasn't completed regardless what they say.Dude,hope the Ride comes back 100% and puts that **** eatin grin back on your mug.Staying Tuned.

 

I enjoyed the post LecheDude... Grasshopper learn well... I enjoyed the ride home from my wonderful blessed Dealer... On a freshly washed bike... In the rain... n I didn't care a bit it was raining... Wiped her down when I got home even... I believe mine slipped thru the cracks as well... Still though, it's easier to R&R the master cylinder than it is to rebuild it... Why did Mr. Harley try to solve this thing with a nicke dime fix? A new master cylinder is 150 bucks... and they wanted to fix the problem with dime bag of O rings and a little plunger... Meanwhile out on Interstate 10... but I digress... I didn't die... Damn it... I reckon only the good die young... Well they showed you a statue-
Told you to pray.
They built you a temple and locked you away.
Ah! But they never told you the price it would pay.
The things that you might have done...

Like ride a Harley from Houston to Niagara Falls with the Bitchinest Biker Babe on your hip...

 

They R&R'd the Clutch Master Cylinder, the recall on the filler neck & updated the software on the radio... Plus a 5k service...

 

I'm glad to read that your bike has been fixed.
Did they have any explanation on how the clutch worked okay for 5,000 miles if it had bad parts?
One of the main reasons I spend time on the various forums is to read about potential problems that might occur to my bike, car, boat, rv, etc. and what to look for or expect on vehicles that I am shopping for.
Hope this is the last of your problems.

Shirley you Jest Mitch... The O rings hold for a while then they break down because of the way it was designed... The speed at which they will fail has to do with how often you operate the clutch... No... They shipped it off to Detroit to get examined. They know what the problem is, but they can and will not admit it for a plethora of reasons primarily being the almighty dollar...

 

After getting my first 14 shot out from under me, I am now on a CVO with the retooled Hyd. Clutch Master Cylinder and I am at 6k miles with no incident... If you have a 14 built prior to January take it in and make them replace the Clutch Master Cylinder even if you have to spend your own money to get it done as I believe all the Recall Repairs will eventually fail... Either that or practice riding with out a clutch so when it happens it won't be your first rodeo... All That being said... The Speakers are JUNK!... If you buy a 14 make them give you an Amp and some better speakers before you take possession...

 

Here we go round the Mulberry Bush... I called this one back when my recall rebuild failed back in Feb... You won't get a rebuild kit this time... You will now get a new master cylinder... They knew all along the fix was temporary... The Rebuild Kit included harder tougher O rings to compensate for the screwed up tooling of the cylinder they go in... So you can operate the clutch a few more times before it fails. The new one has a retooled cylinder... http://www.hdforums.com/forum/new-ru...-9-8-14-a.html

 

But they're not replacing the master cylinder...it's another rebuild kit.

 

Every time I get ready to pull the trigger and buy a new Rushmore another recall comes down the pike. This one really has me spooked as it has the potential to take the life of an unsuspecting rider or an aware one as well.

The MOCO has been very lucky so far that no one has been seriously hurt.

 

Then by an older one.

Just remember, there was a recall in '12 that affected well over 300,000 Harley touring bikes.

Might want to go older than that....
