First, have a dealer check your VIN against Harley records to see if perhaps the upgrade program (it's not a recall) has already been performed.

Second, the upgrade program supposedly expired in 2010, two years after they initially set up the program in July of 2008.  That doesn't mean you shouldn't ask Harley to help if you find you have the problem; the worst that could happen is they say no, but you might catch them on a good day and they say yes.

That was the very first thing I checked before I bought mine. Mine was original, and had no issues or major maint or warranty done on the bike. I did have all the factory recall updates done, and is still solid, no leaks, and no major issues, other than the battery running down.
