If you bought a new Harley-Davidson recently (specifically a Touring or Softail model), you may want to stop riding it for the time being, because the company has put out a recall notice on certain models.
The issue apparently involves the hydraulic clutch, which has reportedly proven difficult in certain circumstances to disengage. If you can't disengage the clutch, you could have trouble slowing down or stopping, potentially resulting in a crash. And crashes are not a good thing, especially on a motorbike.
The recall affects nearly 30,000 bikes and trikes manufactured between May 3 and October 14, 2013, and includes Touring models FLHTCU, FLHTK, FLHTP, FLHX, FLHXS, FLHTKSE and FLHRSE, and Softail models FLHTCUTG, FXSBSE and FLSTNSE. If you're riding one of those, your dealership should be calling you to advise you not to ride your bike until they can come pick it up and fix the problem, which should only take about an hour.
