Harley-Davidson Motor Company is recalling approximately 82,117 Softail motorcycles from the 2018 through 2024 model years. A mounting tab on the rear shock pre-load adjuster may break, which allows the adjuster to rub against and damage the rear tire. This contact can lead to a sudden loss of tire pressure while riding. To fix this, authorized dealers will install a new mounting bracket for the pre-load adjuster at no cost to the owner.
If the rear tire suddenly loses pressure while the motorcycle is in motion, the rider may lose control of the vehicle, which significantly increases the risk of a crash and potential injury.
