Harley-Davidson Motor Company is recalling 12,871 model year 2016-2019 Street 500 (XG500), Street 750 (XG750), and model year 2017-2019 Street 750A (XG750A) motorcycles.
The brake calipers may corrode internally after exposure to certain driving environments such as coastal regions or road salt, resulting in increased brake drag.
Excessive brake drag can increase the risk of crash.
