2007 harley road glide. The housing for stator fails. Cracks inner primary. In some cases. The major compliant is that there is only a up grade kit that costs $479.00. Not to include tax an labor. It has been known to just lock up motor. How can this not be a recall as of yet the or off is there upgrade kit!!! It's not if it happens but when!!! . I have many complaints on the 96" motors but the worst is the cam plays need to be upgraded the best that makes the is fueling r&d.thet really need to step up an make good on these recalls. It appears they or someone are not making this known. This bike is on its tenth year. An they never put on recall list. Thank you for your attention in this matter.
