2005–2006 Bigdog Chopper & 2005–2006 Bigdog Mastiff + 1 more recall: electrical system
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain motorcycles, the ignition modules are oriented within the battery tray in a way that makes the ignition module susceptible to vibration.
💥 The risk
This susceptibility to vibration may contribute to a stalling condition that could occur without any prior warning and result in a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will install a new ignition module mounting system free of charge. The recall began on august 25, 2006. Owners may contact big dog at 316-267-9121.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
