  I filled the gas tank and returned home. After about an hour, the wife noticed a strong odor of fuel coming from the garage. I went outside and noticed a significant amount of gasoline was on the floor. I started investigating as to why this occurred. I wasn't able to identify the problem, but noticed that when I lifted the front of the tank, the leak would stop. I took the bike to a local repair shop and between us we determined a weld on the front of the tank was the leak. We drained approximately a gallon and a half of fuel out and the leak stopped. I contacted two dealerships and was told to bring the bike down and they would check it, but do to the age it would likely not be covered. I removed the tank and immediately noticed the bottom of the tank was not sealed (bare sheet metal) and it was obvious there was gap in the sheet metal inside the tank, where it was leaking on the outside of the tank. I obtained a tank from a 2017 HD touring and installed it on my 2014. The 2017 tank was sealed entirely on the inside and once installed there were no issues. I don't know why the original tank took so long to leak nor why it just occurred out of the blue. I have filled the tank many times and never had an issue.

  Purchased our 2014 street glide special on april 21, 2018. on june 11, 2018 the pins holding the right saddlebag failed causing the saddlebag to fall off. (We always check before a ride!), luckily no one was injured. We were doing about 55 mph on a mountain hwy going uphill and on a slight left turn. the dealership informed us there was a recall on the pins in 2015 and that ours had been replaced in 2017. so, not even a year later the same issue IS happening with the recalled replacement pins? dealership will not replace our saddlebags. because it's a special they are asking over $600 to replace the bag. we've only had the bike 7 weeks.

  I ride 2014 harley davidson motorcycle. Coming home from weekend ride. I stopped to put on warmer clothes, when I got off freeway, went to down shift and my shifter shaft and shifter arm were stripped off. I hadn"t touched my shifter for 200 miles. I was left stranded and had to call for a tow. I went on harley website there are numerous complaints from 2013 and up of for the same problem. Harley will not issue a recall witch I fill IS there problem. Being stranded in the middle of no where on the side of the road IS dangerous and irresponsible on harleys part. I have had 4 other harley davidson motorcycles in 35 years riding and have never broke down. This IS clearly bad manufacturing on harleys part. And should be addressed with some kind off recall to prevent this from happening to other riders. We rely on our bike to get us from point a to point b. I fill it IS soft metal or hardening of the metal used. Are we suppose to carry 2 extra parts every time we go riding I only have 8000 mile on my bike it cost me 25,000 dollars. I hope this can be used to help us riders. Thank you very much!

  The spark plug wire in wearing by rubbing against something. I've seen this on every 2014 harley davidson touring bike I've seen including mine. it hasn't worn through yet but it will sooner or later and when it does it will arch to the gas tank. I didn't hear about the problem until my bike was out of warranty. HD IS replacing those that are under warranty so they know about the problem.

  During a ride on january 9, 2016, I experienced a failure of the shifting mechanism on my 2014 harley street glide. The shifter would move freely and would not engage the transmission. I was unable to downshift or upshift and was stuck in second gear. I took the motorcycle to the house of thunder harley davidson morgan hill, ca dealership and they told me that the shifter shaft splines had stripped and thus they replaced the shaft under warranty at 7,849 miles. on january 14, 2017, I was riding and experienced the identical catastrophic failure of the shifting mechanism. This time the motorcycle was stuck in 5TH gear and unable to be moved into any other gear. This failure occurred with 9,581 miles. I disassembled the shifting mechanism and found that the splines on the shifter shaft had stripped again. I called the house of thunder harley davidson morgan hill, ca dealership and was told that this issues was no longer covered under the manufacture's warranty.

  2014 harley davidson street glide. consumer writes in regards to factory installation of boom box 6.5 infotainment/ the "repeat" function of the navigation system problems. *smd the consumer stated he downloaded the most recent software version of the infotainment system. After riding, and using the navigation system with the new software, it was soon discovered that it was not functioning as it was designed. The repeat function of the navigation system no longer worked. The repeat function enabled the rider to re-hear a voice prompt from the navigation system. Once the voice prompt was commanded, the user could depress the repeat in the upper right of the display to hear the given command again. Customer support acknowledged they were getting calls regarding the same problem. The consumer was informed he would have to wait until the new model year for any new software changes. *jb

  While riding the bike at highway speed the cruise control failed to disengage when applying front brake. This IS an intermittent problem and deals with the switch housing on the handlebars where the front brake lever IS attached.

  Regarding nhtsa recall no. 15V-427: local HD dealer replaced my original attachment springs to my 2024 HD street glide saddlebags as required by this recall. However, one of my bags recently fell off while riding after the new replacement springs were installed. A local dealership inspected and originally stated harley sent them the wrong replacement springs. That was the reason my bag fell off. After they spoke with harley they changed their story and stated that indeed they did replace my faulty springs with the correct replacement springs. It IS clear the springs they provided do not work. My remaining bag was not secure after I inspected it recently as well. The dealership has agreed to replace my lost bag but refuses to replace lost items that were in the bag. Apparently in my case the replacement kit IS not working. Please advise. thank you.

  I thought I was flashing my brake lights to warn drivers behind me that I was slowing down to make a turn..i noticed that the driver behind me was not slowing down!! I decided to not make that turn and kept going to prevent me from getting hit. Pulled over to check my brake lights. I found that they do not activate until there IS significant pressure applied to the front brake lever. The brake lights should be illuminated as soon as the brake lever IS pulled before the brake pads contact the rotor! When coming to a normal stop, I stop and look to see if my brake lights are lit up. Most all of the time, they are not! I went to the dealership to have this looked at. They replaced the front brake cylinder. That did not work to fix the brake light problem. I went back to the dealership to check some of the same model bikes in the showroom to see if they did the same thing. They all did! With the brake lever pulled, the front brakes making contact and the bike not being able to move, the brake lights were not on! They do come on after you apply significant pressure to the brake lever, therefore you have to concentrate on squeezing the lever harder after you are already stopped to let people know that you are stopped. The manager of the dealership verified this and IS working with me to get this resolved. However, since this appears to be an issue with more than just my street glide, this very dangerous issue needs to be addressed before someone gets hurt or killed. *tr

• 10222358TECHNICAL TIP BULLETIN TA0016: 2014 and Later Touring Steering Head Bearing Adjustment. PURPOSE: REVISION. Updated: 2014-2019 to 2014 and later Touring vehicles, and VEHICLES AFFECTED. Harley-Davidson motorcycles are designed, manufactured and tested to be operated with both of the riders hands on the handlebar. If you or a customer are experiencing a handling concern, refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING, HANDLING, IRREGULARITIES found in the MAINTAINANCE chapter of the appropriate service manual. The service manual process is not intended to validate factory settings, but rather to be used if a concern is presented. Through extensive testing, Harley-Davidson has developed the service manual specification and adjustment procedure as the optimum steering head bearing adjustment and verification method to achieve the desired handling characteristics across all speeds and conditions. Addressing a perceived feel of low speed wobble, oscillation or free play by adjusting the steering head bearings beyond the service manual specification may have an adverse effect on motorcycle stability.

• 10153989TECH ARTICLE TA0016: 2014 and Later Touring Steering Head Bearing Adjustment. Purpose: During recent dealer visits to observe steering head bearing adjustment process, Harley-Davidson staff observed that some dealers are not correctly following the service manual steering head bearing adjustment process. Issue: Steering head bearings on 2014 and later Touring, CVO Touring and Police Touring motorcycles which may not have been adjusted correctly using the service manual procedure at dealerships. Resolution: Never make adjustments by feel. Always follow the process in the appropriate service manual.
• 10139399TECH ARTICLE TA0023: TA0023: Crankshaft Rod Bearing. Purpose: Technicians have been falsely identifying connecting rod bearings as failed due to a perception of resistance as the rods are rotated. The clearance of the Twin Cam and Milwaukee-Eight crank pin bearings are maintained to a very tight range. This optimizes performance and maintains low mechanical noise in operation. The connecting rod bore can also distort slightly in operation due to stress relaxation. As a result, bearing clearance decreases due to the contact zone broadening and the load being distributed over more rollers. The combination of a bore being slightly out of round and reduced bearing clearance can result in varying degrees of resistance through the range of motion. Axial clearance is also tightly controlled for proper alignment. For these reasons, zones of resistance can be found when the connecting rods are rotated by hand through their range of motion. Resistance during rod motion, by itself, is not an indication of a performance or durability concern.

Issue: Some CB (Citizens band) radio equipped Touring model customers have expressed concern about manipulating the PTT (Push to talk) button on the right hand control, while operating the throttle control. Symptom: Rider's comfort. Resolution: To address this concern, a new feature is included in DIGITAL TECHNICIAN II (PART NUMBER: HD-48650) software version 11.0 that allows the configuration of the PTT and cruise control buttons to be interchanged. This will allow CB radio customers the option to move PTT function to the LHCM (Left hand control module) and the cruise control function to the RHCM (Right hand control module). If a customer requests this change in configuration, the kit in Table 1 must be installed. These buttons are gray to visually differentiate them from the OE (Original equipment) buttons.
