  1. Automatic transmission (power train)

    NHTSA 86V041000 Reported 4,164 vehicles potentially affected HARLEY-DAVIDSON MOTOR CO.

    Transmission magnetic drain plugs may have been broken during assembly. Consequence of defect: the broken magnet may become lodged between the transmission gears causing the transmission to lockup. If the motorcycle is operating, the rear wheel will lock-up which may lead to an accident.

    Remedy: Replace the drain plug with a shorter, non interfering magnetic drain plug.

    Model years: 1986
