Has anyone heard about a possible recall on 08 motors??? I just heard a nasty rumor at my dealer that some motors might be recalled. i learned this when i took my new 08 XB9SX in because it was not running right.

Any info on this would be great thanks.

Oh yeah there recalling the motors on the 08's.
LOL sounds like you need to find a new dealer or buy a manual.

Guess we know where the troll comes from -- anyways I have heard nothing about a recall at any of the three dealers I frequent, seems like normal "HD people not knowing much about Buell" schtick. As far as I know the issue is not engine related -- the '08 model changes were not to the entire engine but specific components. I could be wrong, but a full recall seems unlikely.

well my check engine light came on and my manual said see the electronic troubleshooting manual a whole other manual that i dont have. I think it might be a mapping issue butim not sure and my dealer said they have no idea what the problem is. So for now i am without my bike is there anything i can do about this like see another dealer??

Seeing another dealer is always an option -- especially when the current one says they have no idea -- you might want to post this in the Knowledge Vault, since this is a technical question.
