I read somewhere the SE 110 stamp on the 07 - 08 cylinders with a silver background are the early 110's on recall, dark backgound has recent fix. Probably late 2008 & all 2009 has the fix. My 2009 CVO Springer has the dark background so hope it is resolved!

yup! black badges on my heads, and I got the recall.


early '07 110's had the silver badges on the heads, they were changed sometime in mid '07 to the black badges. there are no '08 110's with silver badges.
I believe the 110 heads with the silver badges are getting the heads replaced.
mine has the black 110 badges on the heads, and I got the recall for just head gaskets, ACR's and crankcase center bolt.

my bike is in the shop getting the recall done now. I spoke to the dealer this afternoon, the bike will be done tomorrow morning! :2vrolijk_21:

just in time for a beautiful weekend! :pepper: :bananarock:

Update (10/10/2008) sorry for misinformation, just read below Duece Bigelow's 08 has the dark 110 badges and got the recall, so sounds like a crap shhot for 08's.

The reason for the color change of the badges was not related to the engine issues at all. There is no relation of the color of the badge to the version or built of the engine. Owners with bikes with earlier badges experienced them getting yellowish in color, and that was the reason for the change to black.

Agree Kev ... don't wait to get a letter ... just call a dealer and give them your VIN ... at least that is what I'd do.

Question... Knowing that many of these bikes have a recall, why wouldn't the dealer take care of the recall work prior to selling the bike? It would have saved me and many others a lot of head aches.

If the bike in fact has a recall, as opposed to the "enhancement program", then the dealer is in fact supposed to perform the recall prior to delivering the bike to a buyer.  The recall notice to the dealers actually spells that out to them.  The "enhancement", however, has no such instructions from the MoCo.

I've seen used CVO's being sold by dealers without any work performed. I think the're just in denial and do not understand the leak happens for sure.
