Dropping mine off tonight. Said they had to "quarantine" for 24 hours. I'm on shift tomorrow anyhow so told them I will be back Friday to get pick it up.

Never start any bike except in neutral. Why put more drag on the starter and clutch plates?

Bette question is why is HD having such a hard time figuring out a hyd clutch? It's been years. Should be a non issue.

Is this recall only for the 2016? I have a 2014 Limited and was wondering if these were on recall as well?

The 14's were already recalled once or twice (maybe three times) for the clutch!

Default 2016 clutch recall

Had my recall work done 2 weeks ago on my SGS, they had to quarantine my bike for 24 hours Before performing recall service.

I just purchased a new 2016 in late July. Love the bike. Took it in for the 1000 mile service and was told about the problem and the recall. Okay why was I not told before I purchased the bike as the recall was in effect????

Then they tell me no problem there is only an issue if the bike sits for a long period of time, like over the winter. Then they tell me to bring the bike back in and they will have to have it for two days to see if there is a problem!

I call BS. If there is a recall I want it fixed "Period". They tell me no problem they will put me on the list. I asked what list? Then they tell me they can only order a limited number and repair kits a week, like maybe three and they have 200 bikes to fix and the new bikes on the floor under the recall get fixed first. Again I called BS mine is a new bike. Well they tell me the rules changed after I took delivery of mine. Now four weeks later I have heard nothing. Was by the dealership and there are only about a hundred ahead of me.

Hurry up and wait! I am very aware of it however and I am always prepared to pull the front brake and hit the kill switch if is fails to disengage.

PS

How many of you had to get your gas cap replaced? They replaced my Chinese gas cap with one made in Mexico that is actually compatible with gasoline!
