HYDRAULIC CLUTCH PROBLEMS SAME AS IN MOST 2013-2016 HARLEY BIKE WITH HYDRAULIC CLUTCH. HOWEVER THE 2015 FREEWHEELER (FLRT) IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. HOWEVER IT MY BELIEVE THEY HAVE THE SAME HYDRAULIC CLUTCH EQIUPMENT. THE FAILURE ACCURRED WHILE DRIVING IN MAJOR HIWAY. VERY SCAREY ALMOST LOSE CONTROL.
REAR BRAKE PEDAL GOES DOWN WITH NO STOPPING. LINKED REAR AND FRONT BRAKES. FRONT BRAKE LEVER STOPS FINE. THIS HAPPENED 2-17-2017 WITH 132 MILES ON THE TRIKE. HAPPENED STATIONARY, IN MOTION AND ON CITY STREETS. PUMPING PEDAL HAD NO EFFECT. PICKED UP BY DEALER SAID THAT THEY BLED THE BRAKES. BRAKES FIXED. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE REAR MASTER CYLINDER ON SOME OF THE 2015 TRI GLIDE TRIKES. POSSIBLY USING THE SAME DEFECTIVE REAR MASTER CYLINDER. WILL SEE IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN.
