I sent my dealer's tech an e-mail this morning asking him about the recall. He told me that he had already ordered a kit for my bike and that he'd let me know when it came in.

That's good service!

Interesting.
Please everybody report back when you get the notice by mail.

Dumb question time, would this affect bikes sold in the UK?

Thanks

Yes, I doubt UK bikes would be any different in this area.

Good question... What's your equivalent of our NHTSA? How do you get notified of recalls over there? I wouldn't think it was only our bikes. You have gravel on your roads, right? Have you heard of these problems over there?

Spoke to my dealer who's currently fixing my windscreen (another post) and he'll order the parts and get this addressed.

Spoke to my dealer today as well. They were more than helpful. They are ordering the kit and I have an appointment for this coming Friday. :-)

Bought and took possession of my 2012 C14 on Friday. Dealer called me today to inform me of the recall and set an appointment to get the fix.

I received my recall notice in the mail today.

Any second owners getting notices?

Not exactly sure what it is they are fixing for this recall, but I did the modification to lower the brake pedal (grind off the end of the adjuster rod) when I installed Murphs lowered pegs. This has nothing to with that correct?

Mine arrived as well, and I bought it used.

I received my recall notice in the mail today, i will wait some days so they get some practice performing this recall before they do mine

Gumby · « **Reply #34 on:** August 02, 2012, 02:41:53 PM »

Ordered the part yesterday and got the letter in the mail today. Now am I proactive or what?

Wait for'em to practice, what are ya crazy?

I am sitting around waiting for my ECU to be returned and I am going nuts. By the time the ECU arrives they will have the part and I'll ride'er right into their shop.

Aren't they removing that 'guard' and tossing it?

Oh, I thought the recall fix was adding a guard to keep small rocks out?? Did I misread that part?? $:-\$

tbanzer · « **Reply #36 on:** August 02, 2012, 04:00:29 PM »

Just got my recall for 08 today

MrPepsi · « **Reply #37 on:** August 02, 2012, 04:00:42 PM »

Aren't they removing the previous attempt at a guard if this work was performed and installing a better one?

Yeah they're recalling the recall. Removing the bandaid 'guard', if installed, and changing the actuating rod.

Got my recall notice yesterday for my '09.
