Used Buying Inspection Checklist

What to look for when buying a used 2020 Harley-Davidson FLTRK Road Glide Limited.

Brake Light Recall

Ensure the software update for the unintended brake light illumination (Recall 0178) has been performed.

RDRS Equipment

Check if the bike was optioned with RDRS (look for the 'TC' button on the right hand controls and TPMS on the dash).

Lower Fairing Leaks

Check the radiators and hoses inside the lowers for signs of coolant leaks, a known weak point in early Twin-Cooled systems.

Transmission Fluid Level

Check for 'fluid transfer' where transmission oil migrates to the primary; ensure the primary vent fix was installed if needed.
