Consumer Description

WHEN THE FUEL TANK IS NOT COMPLETELY FULL THE ENGINE LURCHES OR BUCKS. THESE MOVEMENTS ARE VIOLENT AND UNEXPECTED AND CAN CAUSE YOU TO CRASH OR PUT YOU IN DANGER BECAUSE IT IS STARVED FOR FUEL AND WILL NOT GET OUT OF THE WAY OF NORMAL TRAFFIC FLOW. THIS ISSUE HAPPENS BEFORE THE LOW FUEL LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED AND USUALLY STILL HAS 1/3 OF THE FUEL REMAINING. I HAVE CONTACTED HARLEY AND MADE THEM AWARE BUT THEY DO NOT HAVE A FIX AS OF NOW.
