IN THE WIND P34 174,000 HARLEY-DAVIDSONS RECALLED T his is one of the odder recalls we have seen, but Harley-Davidson is recalling a staggering 170,000 motor- cycles because owners may not have flushed the hydraulic brake fluid at the right time and mileage. "Deposits may form on components within the brake system if the DOT 4 brake fluid is not replaced for a prolonged period of time beyond the two-year maintenance schedule speci- fied in the Owner's Manual," says the NHSTA statement. The bikes affected range from the top-line CVO Touring and VSRC models, to the Road Glide, Night Rod, Electra Glide, Street Glide and many more. Harley-Davidson will notify owners and replace the brake fluid free of charge, with the recall starting on February 12, 2018. CN MOTONOMAD III IS NEARLY HERE T his April, Australian film mak- er and official KTM test rider Adam Reimann will release the latest installment of the Motono- mad series, where he, former Australian Enduro Champion Chris Hollis and Mark Portbury ride the Andes on specially pre- pared KTMs. Cycle News spoke with Reimann in the past after he completed Motonomad II—Rid- ers of the Steppe—a major film where he, Scott Britnell and Hein Schwarz rode across Cen- tral Asia. For Motonomad III the new trio takes on Chile, Bolivia and Argentina. Reimann edits everything himself while on the road, an astounding accomplishment considering the quality of the films. Check out the trailer and get ready to plan a big dirt bike ad- venture with your buddies! CN Harley-Davidson just can't seem to stop the problems these days… (See what we did there?)
