What 2020 Harley-Davidson Fltrxs owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
I own a 2020 Harley-Davidson Road Glide equipped with keyless ignition, where the motorcycle is started using the right handlebar run/stop switch. The ignition switch on the triple tree remains installed and is used only for the fork lock. The motorcycle can be started and operated while the ignition switch is in the fork lock position. The fork lock does not fully engage unless the handlebars are turned fully to the left. This creates a condition where the motorcycle can be ridden with the fork lock partially engaged. While riding, if the handlebars are turned fully left, the fork lock can suddenly engage, causing an immediate steering lock and loss of control. There is no interlock to prevent the motorcycle from starting or being operated with the fork lock engaged or partially engaged, and there is no warning to the rider that the fork lock is engaged. I experienced this condition personally, which resulted in a loss of control of the motorcycle. This presents a serious safety hazard.
