I'm sorry but my o9 Cr may be one of the problem bikes. My VIN is -------D493C00879. Build date is Sept 09. I hate to ask but could you check mine too. I don't know how to get a list of suspects myself as I can't find it on the web. Thanks anyway, whether you do or don't.

>>>>Is this a silent recall

There is not such thing as a "silent recall".

A recall is about as public, for good reason (it relieves the manufacturer of a good deal of liability, piece of information there is.

ANY dealer can run the number and give you up to date information.

ANY problem simply call Buell Customer Service.

Court, maybe you didn't understand my question. What iwas asking is. Is this something that buell is activley sending letters to owners or is this something that the owner has to catch wind about on a buell forum or some other means and then go to buell and find out if their bike is affected.

Look at gm there are some recalls that owners are informed of and others only get taken care of if A. The owed inquires about it or B. There is a problem with it, that is where I get the term "Silent" from

eric - you're fine, no recalls
Greg - yours shows as military sales, still available, no owner or warranty info.
Anders - clear, no recalls
Mike R - you have no recalls involved, all good.

The recall affects 1125cr’s built before September 17 2008. Found that info online, so not sure if it's accurate.

Considering this only affected about 130 bikes most of them out there wont have any issues.

Zac,

When did this recall happen? I had the new flash last month and there were no recalls for my bike at that time.

Thanks, Roadrash1

So, would prolly be rare that any new 09s on dealers floors would be affected, right?
