2004 Buell XB9SL recalls, newest first

December 2, 2003NHTSA 03V494000581 vehicles potentially affected

Electrical system › Horn

Summary: On certain motorcycles, the wire that provides power to the horn, due to misrouting, can become frayed from contact with the horn bracket mounting bolt. As a result, the horn wire may become exposed, and when the horn button is pushed, either the horn circuit fuse or the key switch fuse can blow.
Consequence: If the key switch fuse blows, the vehicle can stall, which could result in a crash. If the horn fuse blows, there will be a loss of power to the horn and rear brake light.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect and correct the wire routing, if necessary. Owner notification began on December 23, 2003. Owners should contact buell at 1-414-342-4680.
