HARLEY-DAVIDSON ISSUES SADDLEBAG RECALL-NHTSA RECALL CAMPAING NUMBER 15V-427

I had this recall completed and it took literally 5 minutes. Dealerships are just replacing the 4 (2 on each side) saddle bag pin retaining clips. Each dealership was sent a large bag(s) of the appropriate clips (saddlebag mounting receptacles).

Recall Info:

If this condition remains undetected, the saddlebag may become separated from the motorcycle while it is in motion, possibly creating a hazard for other motorists.
