Received notices for both my Harleys. I had already contacted my local dealer and am on the list to receive the fix. The only pain the ass is we are heading into winter here, so chances of having a nice day to get it in to the dealer are going to be hard to do, and mostly it's hard for me to get days off to be flexible enough to get in before spring...
While I'm concerned, I'm not too worried as it's a voluntary recall and not mandatory. If it was really severe the notice would have been mandatory and they would have told us to stop riding the motorcycle till it's repaired. While I've never owned a motorcycle with a leaky hydraulic clutch, I would imagine as it leaked, it would start to feel spongy.
I'm only concerned about it affecting me in one circumstance, and that would be coming to a slow/full stop at say a light. Thats where I imagine if the clutch wasn't disengaging you'd stall the bike. So a tip over might be possible, otherwise I'm not too worried as when I raced motorcycles, I had a get-off and the clutch cable broke. I was still able to ride the bike to the end of the race just shifting without the clutch. I don't believe any damage occurred because of this. With that said, I wouldn't advocate doing this as it may damage something, but I'd do it if I was stuck in a remote place...
I was already considering a Rekluse clutch, might just make the switch on my FLHXS...
