Crack in the engine case caused primary fluid to be evacuated from the primary case resulting in a secondary failure of the clutch. the failure of the clutch then led to an immediate decrease in speed and no power. the clutch acted as if it was always engaged. I have been told by two harley certified mechanics that this has been a known problem for that particular model year (as well as earlier years) and warranty work has been done on these motorcycles up to as late as last year. I also spoke with HD customer service and they verified that "some" warranty work was performed due to this failure and that none IS performed after 10 model years. I feel strongly that this IS a potential hazardous situation. sincerely, greg curran
