2011 HARLEY-DAVIDSON FLSTC Wheels Problems

THE REAR WHEEL SPOKE CAME LOOSE IT HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES SINCE I GOT THE BIKE. THE BIKE WAS VERY HARD TO CONTROL. I HAVE HAD THE BIKE SERVICED AND HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE SPOKES TIGHTENED BEFORE. I CHECK THEM EVER TIME I WASH (ONCE A WEEK)THE BIKE. I'M NOT SURE WHY THERE IS NOT RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE TO REPLACE THE RIM NOW WITH A MAG.. IT IS JUST NOT SAFE TO RIDE.. *JS

I WAS TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE AT APPROX. 70 MPH WHEN MY BIKE STARTED WOBBLING, I SLOWED DOWN BECAUSE THE WOBBLE WAS SO PRONOUNCED THAT I HAD A HARD TIME HOLDING THE BIKE, THE REAR WHEEL FELT LIKE IT WAS LOOSE. I SLOWED THE BIKE DOWN AND SINCE WE WERE ALMOST AT OUR DESTINATION, CONTINUED VERY CAREFULLY. WHEN I STOPPED, THE OTHER BIKE RIDER ASKED ME WHY I WAS RIDING SO CRAZY, I EXPLAINED HOW THE BIKE FELT AND WE PROCEEDED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE BIKE WAS CHECKED AND THEY HAD TO CHANGE THE REAR WHEEL BECAUSE THE SPOKES HAD ALL LOOSENED FROM THE HUB. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES WITH THIS STOCK WHEEL, THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT HARLEY HAD REPLACED THE STEEL HUB WITH AN ALUMINUM HUB ON THE HERITAGE MANUFACTURED THE LAST HALF OF 2011. THE SECOND TIME WAS ON SEPTEMBER 3, 2013...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 HARLEY DAVIDSON FLSTC MOTORCYCLE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED A VIBRATION IN THE REAR WHEEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING WHERE THE TECHNICIANS WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED THAT THE EIGHT SPOKES IN THE REAR WHEEL WERE LOOSE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE SPOKES WERE TIGHTENED. THE FAILURE CONTINUED AND THE SPOKES CONTINUED TO BECOME LOOSE INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT FURTHER REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000.
