Defect SummaryOn certain motorcycles, as a result of a greater body thickness than used in previous model years, the voltage regulator may contact the front fender under certain conditions. in some cases this contact may allow the front fender to catch on the top side of the regulator body which could impede the operator's ability to steer the vehicle.
Consequence SummaryThis could result in a crash which could cause injury or death to the rider.
Corrective SummaryOn motorcycles which do not have accessory engine guards, dealers will install an intermediate mounting bracket that will relocate the voltage regulator to a position which provides more clearance from the front fender. on vehicles with an accessory engine guards, dealers will install the thinnner dimension voltage regulator to avoide the front fender clearance problem. the recall began on january 22, 2007. a second customer letter reflecting the above remedy will be sent to owners on march 16, 2007. owners may contact harley-davidson at 1-414-343-4056.

 Bike acting like it was dead. turn ignition on, lights come on and when you hit the starter you get a click and then everything including the lights go dead. the problem stems from corrosion on a relay. the bike is brand new. new parts shouldn't fail within 1000 miles. *tr

 The idle air controller (iac) is receiving power from the ecm with the ignition key removed and the run/stop switch in the stop position. the iac drains the battery voltage resulting in a dead battery. the cause is corrosion on the system relay in the fuse box. the system relay has constant power applied to it and with the corrosion this power is being feed to the ecm which in turn feeds power to the iac. harley davidson- tt322- says that the corrosion is caused by water running down a wiring harness and ending up at the system relay. i've had my motorcycle for 2 1/2 months and it has never been in the rain or gotten wet. i have had a dead battery twice because of this. while researching this problem on a harley sportster forum, i have found many other people experiencing this same problem.*jb
