Harley is recalling nearly 30,000 motorcycles
Release date:2021.04.15

With regard to the National Highway Traffic Safety Association (NHTSA), Harley-Davidson is recalling 31,346 motorcycles in its US Sportster series. The reason is the defective coating of the headlight bulb cover: contrary to specifications, the coating is high-gloss chrome plated and may cause unnecessary heat to burn a hole in the vitreous body, thus causing the two filaments of the near-light and high beam to burn out. This will affect the 883 and 1200 Sportster models produced between 2019 and 2021

The recall is currently limited to the North American market in the United States and Canada, and it is not known whether domestic models will be affected
