    Hey Guys, My Master Cylinder Looks as though it is leaking, and has been for sometime by the  look of it, A mate said he thought their was a recall to fix these, Does anyone know anything about this ??? surely it should not be stuffed after only 7000Ks.....?????

    Cheers

    I've read something about the lids being done up too tight causing them to leak,nothing about a recall though!!

    Had mine replaced on my 08 Heritage, always looked wet around cap seal then paint started to blister ,was away on a run went to a Harley dealer and they replaced the unit with no argument. Bike was under warranty but they seemed to know about this issue they also pointed out a problem with the compliance sticker on the frame peeling and being VOID, this dealer was in Tammworth and supplied great service ,even though I had bought the bike in Canberra.

    Will this be replaced on my bike for free, or will they charge me ???? when I bought it, I also took out the extended 3 year warranty... The master cylinder is all blistered and looks about 10 years old, not suitable for a bike that has only done 7 thousand KS, there is obviously an issue there somewhere.
    Thanks
