Seat, the struts are the two arms that hold on the fender! :flag:

The shocks are bolted to the frame and swingarm.

Wikipedia: A strut is a structural component designed to resist longitudinal compression.
Come on, easily confused with a shock.
And the brewski thing? Yea maybe :cheers:

:roll: :roll: Yeah, that's a GREAT way to put it, woodbutcher - Mrs. P8RIOT opened and read the recall letter last night, and asked what it meant. I didn't dare tell her it was the part keeping her little butt on the bike. :whoop:

Received letter (with my VIN - '07 K9) - I'm a "Real Person" - I EXIST!!

Scanned in the letter, fired off email to the dealer (American Dream Machines, Evans, Georgia). They're all over it, kits were on order already, and they'll do mine next time next time the bike is in the shop.

Good enough in my book. Mo Better'n company claiming they never heard of any problems, which happens often enough on the Hog side of the garage, e.g. 110" CVO rear cylinder oil leak...

Got my letter today also.

Not worried about my dealer, whenever I am there they bring up my "profile" and check for all issues and fix em, then explain everything they did.

Mine came in also. So got to get to the dealer for the bolts and the fuse now whenever I can make it over there.
