I have a 1999 harley model #flhtcu-i, vin # [xxx].i received a recall on part # 29987-99a a circuit breaker that could open due to reasons other than for which it was designed,causing an unexpected interruption of all electrical power to the motorcycle. I was on vacation when this unexpected interruption occurred. I had my bike towed to knoxville, tn.,the nearest h-d dealer.they told me this was a problem that the have seen on several of these bikes. When i called h-d costoner service they told me they were not recalling the stator assy., #29987-99a which was listed in the recall letter. I think the stator should be part of the recall.the h-d dealers that i have talk to think the same as i do. I hope you would look into this problem, it will save lives. Thanks [xxx].
