I Know this is old news, however, I'm not sure if this was done to my bike before I purchased it last year, new from a dealer. Anyway to check other than asking the dealer? I suppose that would be the easiest way. Make / Models : Model/Build Years: BUELL / 1125R 2008 Manufacturer : BUELL MOTORCYCLE CO. Mfr’s Report Date : JUN 13, 2008 NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID Number : 08V267000 N/A NHTSA Action Number: N/A Component: POWER TRAIN:CLUTCH ASSEMBLY Potential Number Of Units Affected : 1579 Summary: BUELL IS RECALLING 1,579 MY 2008 1125R MOTORCYCLES.
