2022 HARLEY-DAVIDSON RA1250 Engine Problems

The coolant hose on the lower right side of the radiator is positioned very closely to the front cylinder exhaust pipe. Installation guidance is 7mm clearance prior to any hose bulge due to temperatures associated with engine cooling. This resulted in the coolant hose being exposed to very high temperatures, causing it to melt to the point of coolant exiting the system. The spray of coolant is positioned in such a way that it sprays onto the rider, the right side of the rear tire and the road, posing significant hazard to the rider and the vehicle if operated at anything greater than approximately 10 mph. The manufacturer is aware of the issue as they corrected it in the 2023 model year with an updated radiator featuring a clamp to ensure separation, though no correction or recall has been offered to earlier model years where this flaw exists.

I have owned my bike for less then two months and it has 112 miles on it. Last night it had 5 errors on it. This morning it had 11 errors. This is a known issue with Harley and causes the bike not to start on several occasions. I have less then 100 miles and have been stranded twice.

Also, I asked the dealerships what is the fix. They do not know. They have to wait till someone Harley Corporate and fixed them but does not explain or...

Throttle tends to rev and stick at 4000rpm randomly. Not sure if this is caused by the system software or hardware failure or both. Once this happens the engine functions erratically and the exhaust pipes will heat up until they are red hot and will melt and cause a fire or explosion in the vehicle. The dealership and the manufacturer have been made aware of this tremendous vehicle safety hazard and I am filing this complaint to the NHTSA to ensure that this case is noticed and handled appropriately. My primary concern is for my safety and the safety of everyone who owns this vehicle or plans to purchase it in the future. I was fortunate to have this happen to me while traveling close to home on residential streets. Had I been on the highway and this situation occurred it could have proved to be fatal and my grieving...
